Yes globs are gorgeous in a scope.

You wouldn't think it was taken under difficult conditions.

Excellent work.

Thanks. The big refractor does all the work.

Well done
It is a beautiful scope. I don't know how long Yuri will be making them. Much like Roland Christen of AstroPhysics, these production runs don't always last. I think sometimes they have trouble getting the glasses.

Very nice result regardless and that FOV, being square, looks very cool.

Hey nothing wrong with the rectangular shot and the 11002 chip is still a leader

Thanks dave. This type of scope is ideal for Omega Centauri.

Considering this was taken in less than ideal weather conditions. I can't wait to see what you can do when the weather improves.

Thanks Matty. I'll be setting aside some time to do it again.
