NGC 6752 - Globular Cluster in Pavo
Image Description and Details :
It seems quite appropriate that this very bright globular cluster is located in the constellation of Pavo - the Peacock. The bright scattering of stars look like the fine display of a peacock's tail when it is trying to impress a prospective mate. This globular cluster does a very fine job of that as well.
According to Wikipedia, NGC6752 is the fourth brightest globular cluster after Omega Centauri, 47 Tucanae and Messier 22. I already have images of Omega Centauri and 47 Tucanae so now I'm going to have to grab some data on Messier 22.
