Wow, great image.  That is like a jewel box.  .... it looks 3-D.

Nice capture. You also got galaxies NGC 6207 (obviously) and IC 4617 (tiny, just above a star roughly halfway between NGC 6207 and the core of M13).

Nice work Chris, I like my GC with a bit of fizz about them and well-defined stars.  Nailed both in this image.  Great work.
