Another Dim PN-Abell 24

Dear All
In the same vein as the very dim Abell 23 I took some frames of Abell 24
Info is:
Name: PK217+14.1

Magnitude: 13.6
Size: 4.4'x3.0'

Right ascension: 7h 52m 10s
Declination: +2° 58' 57"
Constellation: Canis Minor

This is reasonably well positioned on the northwest in the evening at present. It's pretty dim and a quite strange shape.
The image is 6x300secs with flats darks etc. Image size is 14 x 9 arcmins with my genesis CCD
