Pn Ngc 5189

So far I have included one galaxy and one nebula, it is time for a planetary nebula.
Here is the picture by Frank aka Spearo.

and this is Dunlop's description.
D252 = NGC 5189 "A very faint nebula, about 25" diameter. It is very near a star of the 8th magnitude, and near the north following extremity of a crescent of very small stars."
The crescent of stars is in the lower left part of Frank's image.
