Hi, Mike,
A really lovely shot and a great story.
I notice that super-bright K0 star is magnitude 4, whereas the globular is 7.6, so you've done a fantastic job of showing them both together. Love the really long diffraction spikes. Like a mediaeval caltrop.
This might be one of those rare occasions when some prestidigitation might be justified to give the star its unstretched colour.
Best,
MBJ
