First night imaging for nearly a month and the seeing and humidity here in Perth were terrible but i was determined to try get something.
Managed 3 and 3/4 hours on the Pavo globular before the humidity got me ( need dew heaters)
Tried to go for Pavo Galaxy NGC 6744 but plate solving just wasn't going to happen for some reason :mad2:
Could do with adding a lot more data but the rain is back.
At least it is a little better than my first attempt last year :)

3 minute subs
SW 10" newt + L-pro filter (first time guiding with this scope)

Nice work Tony :thumbsup:

A good range of star colours and well defined.

Fix that heater!

Thanks Peter
I have no heater yet, just old school hair drier :rofl:

Great work Tony! Nice and sharp with great colour and clarity. I’d love to see a larger version if you could work out how! :thumbsup:

What Peter said - a great range of colours in the stars, and I do like the subtle spikes on the blue star in the upper-left quadrant.


Cheers,

Tony, great globular cluster. I think the colour and saturation are just right! Personally I like to do shorter exposures for globular clusters for crisper stars (not that I have much experience though!) Overall a really nice image.
