I'll echo Kevin's sentiments - nice shots!
As to the shape - that's pretty interesting stuff. It's now suspected the Omega Cen is actually the core of a small galaxy, long stripped of the rest of its stars by the Milky Way. Evidence for this comes from a) the weird shape and b) it contains 3 separate generations of stars - globs normally have just the one.
47 Tuc for me is the greatest glob in the sky. Just a spectacular object in any size of scope. The intensity of the core is remarkable.
Cheers,
Cam
