Description

Testing the FRA600 with 0.7x reducer on a bit complex target, as a wide field around Tucana 47 cluster or NGC 104. The pixel size of the camera is not the most appropriate for the combination of scope-reducer, but is what I can use right now. 
Also exposures were too long, so the core is burnt, and I shall try another go with different exposure time and, if possible, with another camera.

Anyway, I am quite happy to be able to distinguish the small galaxy ESO 50-10 (or PGC1536) just half way between NGC 104 and NGC 121, this because is quite immersed in the cluster. Also it is there the clusters ESO 28-22, Lindsay 14 as well as RZ2005-16.
Maybe I will add the detail of the area with the galaxy using a separate processing, so it can be seen more clearly plus some details of NGC 121, the small fellow next to Tucana 47.
