Also from last night. I had a bit of tracking error here and the seeing was poor.

You certainly got the most out of that night! Two amazing shots (what tracking errors!). It must feel good to be back under the stars. Sorry for your loss.

Beautiful! The stars are resolved right to the core!

Great job! This is sure a colourful globular.

Did you do any deconvolution? The reason I ask is that a couple of the brighter stars have "holes" in them, something I get all the time when I try deconvolution using Images Plus. I've pretty much shied away from RL because of this.
