Nice pic Ian. Good colour and showing lots of potential targets for the postage stamp crowd.

Thanks Hugh, Rick, Mike, Rod, Justin, Geoff & Marc ..

Glad you like it …

I have to admit that collecting data and then processing of this photo was one of the most challenging so far.

Thanks again
Ian

Very very attractive photo Ian and the composition is great fitting both 47 Tuc and NGC 362 in. Well done.

I made a couple of attempts and the FL of 145mm on the 70-200mm lens was the best fit.

Thanks Pat,

I used 70-200mm Canon lens @ 145mm with STT-8300m camera.

As far as the light pollution goes, I think I mentioned this before, I mostly take shots in the S-SW direction, as I have only Indian Ocean in that direction, that is, manageable light pollution .. the rest is done in PixInsight (eg. DBE process) etc.
