G'day all,

 

I decided to have another go at the globular cluster in Pavo with a particular focus on star colors. I am happy with the result, in this case even with only 120 seconds of capture.

Blimey, that was through the Mak 180, not the SCT! So that was 120 seconds at f/15!

 

Turns out, I also shot it through the C5 f/6. This was 640 seconds:
