A rather dim globular cluster. 10 shots @20 seconds. Nexstar 11GPS, modified Nikon D70 at a dark sky site.

Greg,

Not bad for 20 second subs. Do you have any software that does Curve manipulation? I can almost betcha that you can bring out the individual stars in the core with curves.

Greg,
It is a remakable image given the short exposure. Congrats. I am also interested in wether or not you can pull out any more resolution of the core. If you are successful, please repost - it would be an interesting comparison.
