Hi all, had perfect conditions last night, being calm and low humidity. This is 17x3 minute exposures with Tak Astrograph and Astro 40D.

You've handled that little glob very nicely too. :)

[Lester]

Thanks for your comments Dave, Graeme and JJ.

Yes you will be pleased to know that no globular clusters were butchered in the making of this image. All the best.
