Messier M13

[George]

My first attempt at M13 Quite pleased as I originally set out to webcam saturn but the seeing had still not improved over the last week or so, so out came the dslr instead.

Modded canon 350 D with CLS filter on the 250PX

20 x 45 sec subs @ ISO800 unguided

20 x 45 sec darks

Also used lights for the first time in this image

You have a good right to be pleased with yourself George. That is a super capture of the Globular.

You guiding is excellent, stars nice and tight, and the colour is great too. So you must be as pleased as Punch mate. Very good indeed.

I kinda hate it when Ron is the first to comment, since there is nothing left to do but to agree to his words, 'cause they are usually spot on. So, yes George, superb capture indeed. Looks very lively, and colours are just right too. Nice job
