47 Tucanae NGC104

This is a nice object for achro refractors as the stars in the field are mostly too faint to show much CA.

Details... 25 x 1 min subs at ISO 1600, 6 x 3 min subs at ISO 400 and a 30 second for the core. Unmodified Pentax K-x, Baader semi-apo filter, SW 120mm F5 achro refractor.

Air temperature was 28 degrees so I tried putting the camera in the fridge before shooting which was a stupid idea since it fogged up as soon as I took it out lol. I can be a doofus sometimes.
