Anyone viewed M13 lately?

I need help in identifying what I saw. This is my representation attached at 35x. I was in Hercules between zeta and eta Herculis. Might just be my first DSO

Yup. Thar she blows!

Congratulations too on your first

M13 has been looking mighty fine here lately - seems clearer than last year....oh wait, I moved from a 4.5" newt to a 6", lol. Or I've just got a bit better as an observer

Which DSO is next in your sights?

Thanks. I was viewing this in a 3" newt, it was very very faint. It took me about 30 hovers between two stars to see it just as i was about to give up  , so I'm thinking AP 6 is probably the maximum I can see with this scope. M31 and M52 seem to be the next suitable ones.

I can definitely see what I saw, orientated a bit differently!

For anyone wondering, it was actually x70.
