Thanks Glen I used photometric calibration in PixInsight with a G2V white reference so the colour should be about right.

There's a bright B9 class star about half way to 4 o'clock which you show as blue, and a bright K0 class atar most of the way to 5 o'clock which you correctly show as yellow. There are those who would have both of those stars blue, so the whole 10 billion year old cluster is bright blue, a physical impossibility.

And ... you've got North at the top. That really helps people compare. For example, there's that lovely "southern cross" asterism (again with perfect beautiful colour) at the three o'clock edge of the cluster, which is easy to spot in your image.

Thanks very much M&T! I don't even know what those classes are, but I'm glad I got the colour right

10 billion years... makes you realise how trivial our existence is.

Wow, look at how tiny some of those stars are. That's a real trademark of a top notch Newt They seem to get the tiniest stars of any type of scope, even APOs.

I am such a fan of your images.

Greg.

Thanks Greg, that's very kind of you I have to say, I didn't expect such positive feedback, I figured most people are immune these days.

Thanks very much Richard! :-) I tried to strike the right balance between contrast and brightness.
