Tuc 47

This is the second image from my dark site visit. As I was achieving 5 min subs on the night, I thought I'd give Tuc 47 a go at low ISO to see what I could get.

I took 4 images x 300 sec at ISO400 and combined with the darks, flats, dark flats. When I did that I noticed a strange artifact on the left (see the second image). I'm fairly certain it's a reflection from the lights in a nearby house.

The first image is a crop of most of the relevant area. I'm not exactly sure if I've processed this one well, so any suggestions are welcomed. While globular clusters look interesting, I get this feeling that I'm not doing it justice.
