Hercules Cluster first attempt

[StarDuke82]

First attempts at deep sky imaging and imaging a globular cluster set experimented with several different exposure times from .8 seconds to as long as a 3 minutes and then different ISO settings until I was generally pleased with this one it’s not great but I think it’s a good first attempt and definitely better than my first attempts at shooting nebula,( please forgive the elongation of the stars it’s 30 C at night with 80% humidity here and impossible to do anything without a fan blowing on me and it sends vibrations through my deck into my mount unfortunately) I used my Celestron 9.25” Nexstar Evolution SCT with a 2” mirror diagonal to get the views of the targets.
