Omega Centauri

Well, the new UV/IR cut filter made a huge difference on my stars not getting blown out. The practice matches the theory, which is always good :-)

I neglected to take new flats after switching in the new filter, so the image isn't as good as it could be. Also only 20 lights.

Excellent image, Peter. The stars are sharp, round and have good colour. The core of the cluster is hard to image, it gets blown out pretty easily, but you've done a good job of keeping it under control.
