It’s been a year to the day since I last captured Globular Cluster NGC104 or commonly known as 47 Tucanae
Located in the constellation of Tucana not far from the SMC
At 4.1 magnitude it’s quite a bright target and distance from earth around 15,000 light years

92% waxing moon overhead , Bortle 8 Sydney skies ,no wind and no dew
6” f6 Bintel newt on a HEQ5 mount
Canon 600D with Baader coma corrector
ISO 800
No filters
42 x 90sec dithered guided subs
20 x darks
One of the best nights for guiding my HEQ5 with PHD2 so far even though the target was quite low at 35 deg rising up to 50 deg before my roof blocked the view at 11.30pm ( My payload is 9kg or 67% loaded ) Total error 1.12 to 1.20 arc sec error ( RA 0.17 pixels and DEC 0.15 pixels )graph was really smooth with consistent even pulse corrections outside dithering
