The SMC is an irregular galaxy type. It might be distorted by the gravitational forces of our Milky Way and the LMC. Interesting to see a variety of extra galactic objects like nebulae and star clusters which can be reached through amateurs telescopes. At the right Globular Cluster NGC 104 separated by only 90 arc minutes (apparent distance), NGC 362 is up and shines at magnitude 6.8 with 14 arc minutes size
The image was taken with a 135 mm Carl Zeiss Jena f3,5 lens and a QSI 583 WS. Total exposure time was 105 minutes from a dark location 110 kilometers north from Buenos Aires Argentina
