M3 - the Messier count grows

[Sparrow]

Grabbed this quickly on Sunday night between imaging two other targets - just using the last of the camera battery life up before swapping to a new battery and new target.

It seems to have been a year of clusters so far. I find them more and more fascinating each time I image one.

Anyway hope you like it.

Just 14 x 2 minute subs at ISO800 through the newt.

Desperately waiting for another clear night now to add to my Virgo cluster data and M106 so I can finish them off.

ps. Slight bit of amp glow which I only noticed when I posted it - will have to process again with some darks.
