I too am quite impressed with the piccies, but something in 47Tuc struck me as odd... the two faint clusters are roughly the same distance from 47Tuc, whereas in reality NGC152 is about twice as far as NGC121, so perhaps it might be something else....
Recalling Terry B's post here:

I followed his recommendation, and tried Vizier... what you have there in your 47Tuc picture is indeed NGC121 on the right, but the one at upper left is more likely an exotic little glob known as Kron 3
