Default M13 - Great Globular in Hercules

Dear Friends,

One of the most stunning globular clusters visible from northern
latitudes is M13 in Hercules and which is currently well-placed right
now for observation and imaging.

For an image of M13 based on two-hours total exposure, please see
http://www.perseus.gr/Astro-DSO-NGC-6205.htm ... please make sure you
click on the hyperlinked image to load the same image but with much
better image scale.

Weather permitting this evening, I will pursue M92 also in Hercules and
also an impressive globular on its own.

Clear skies!

Anthony.
