Southern globular 47 Tucanae

This is my first attempt at imaging this great object and my first autoguiding attempt with the C11 at prime focus (F6.3) using a WO Megrez 72 to guide with a DFK camera. It is only 8 x 2 minute frames as a weather front was moving in.

It actually looks more spectacular through the eyepiece-photos don't do it justice.

Super image John, it must look spectacular through a scope!!

Thanks Dave

My C11 makes 47 Tuc look like M13 through your Obsessionator. I can only imagine what 47 Tuc would actually look like through your 20". Going to bed now.... :pinch:
