With the moon out interfering in everything apart from moon viewing, i had a quick 45 minutes to scan around with no thoughts of imaging. I found a beautiful little globular cluster called NGC 6388.

Very neat, compact and simply loveley.

There was a star just next to it added to the beauty.

head from m6 to m7 and then a bit of a left (or right thru the scope) and there she is. as always the 32mm ultra wide picked it up, and then went to 100x with the 12.5mm to get a closer look.

I will be coming back to this one for imaging with the prime focus of the toucam later in the month.
