Hi everyone

This is unusual. Thought to be an open cluster up until 1970 -it says here- this is now believed to be a globular cluster outside the mw. So -I think- we must be viewing it through a sea of stars. We also learned that metallicity isn't a rock band. 

Warning: if you're part of the remove-most-of-the-stars movement, look away now!

Thanks for looking and please post if you've had a go at it yourselves.
