As I am in the middle of the suburbs now with street lights polluting the sky, I was not able to get the clarity you have in your picture or what I have seen previously. I just like to say thanks for reminding me what 47 Tuc looks like with clear skies and no pollution.

Can't wait to see more.

Glad you enjoyed viewing my image as well as the real thing!
cheers and CS

She's a little beauty Gaz.
Nicely processed to reveal the core stars without over sharpening as can be the mistake of many.

Thought the 6"er had already had it's swan song....??

You know you love it....
But I guess the new 8" newt will give you a little more gathering power.

Hope the 6" finds a good home if you sell her.

All the best
Rich
