Telrad Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Absolutely beautiful image of Tucanae 47, great detail. Thanks for sharing Rac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Knight Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 That's a great image. I have real problems doing globular clusters - they always come out with really bloated looking stars, and burnt-out cores, even when I take short 15 second exposures. Very nice .
