Globularss and a galaxy

Hi.
With the aquasition of the mighty Argo Navis digital telescope computer and custom designed encoder mounts and gears (Thanks Photoncollector), for my Sampson mount my ability to locate stuff quickly is here.
During its first real test I quickly found a number of objects, taking images of some.
Mouse over them for details. Sky conditions poor, lots of haze, unable to see smc only just able to see the LMC naked eye.
All shot with 10 inch f5.6 scope, hand guided, modded 350D, Idas uv/ir filter and MPCC
