M3 - last image of the season

[Clarkey]

With Astro darkness soon to be a distant memory, here is probably my last image of the season. M3 over 4 hours evenly split between RGB using the 1600MM pro. Processed in PI. I think the processing of globular clusters is probably the most difficult to get good results - and this is OK, but I will probably give it another go later.

On certain globulars getting that nice distribution of amber/orange stars populating the outer regions of the brilliant blue-white core is a mark of a good picture.

You have certainly got that. Good work.

Re: astro-darkness..... don't give up just yet!   There are loads of narrow-band targets in the Cygnus region that yield good (ish) results in the Summer months. You may have to string four or five sessions together to get the acquisition time, but hey-ho!..... those "Summmmmer-niiiighttts....tell me more, tell me more..."
