47 Tucanae NGC104

47 Tucanae NGC104
This was a target I first did in 2019 even just this target on its own with the 300mm prime lens and converter. As the moon came up later I wanted to use the dark moomless time to get some detail especially the coloured stars that are associated with this target. what is staggering is the halo look is a multitude of very very small stars that ring the globular target on my computer i can enlarge the shot to see them, uncountable..........

More deep skies from you and as usual technically very good indeed. We have a new TV series with Brian Cox starting next Wednesday night. Right up your street perhaps but I fear you may not be able to get it. The Universe
