Another Helix...

Hi all, I've been wanting to have a crack at this one for a couple of months now. Last night was pretty poor seeing and transparency but because it has been soooo cloudy here for so long, I ventured out to setup the rig anyway.
This is also the first time I took my DSLR off 1600 ISO to try to achieve less noise. I now see I should have given it at least another 2 hours. Anyway, I am happy with the fact that it is at least recognizable.
Any tips on adding more data another night will be welcomed.
