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

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.

Stunning, Anthony. Stunning. You've captured the most sharply-defined
stars I've ever seen in an image of M13 - and right to the core, too. Just
beautiful! I look forward to your image of M92 (sometimes my favorite
globular) with great anticipation.

Clear Dark Steady Skies,
Dave Jessie

Look at the constellation Hercules being 'pursued' by M92 -

I guess your astrological framework can join your variable tilting
Earth analemma.Any chance of you lot taking up birdwatching where you
can do less damage and still enjoy yourselves.

By Jove! Absolutely beautiful!

Is there any chance you can pursue M22, Antoni?

Excellent work!

I have just the task for you and your intellect ... count all the stars
in the photo. I realize you may have problems once you get into double
digits but use match-sticks.

Glad you like it. Thanks.

I was planning for M23 and M92 for this evening. However, I will look
into M22 and which is on the schedule anyway due to the fact I would
like to capture as many globulars as possible given they are seasonal
and prime right now.


Excellent work!

Having the masterpieces that Rolando Christen puts out really helps the
cause. No better way to appreciate his skills and talents than to use
the equipment he makes available.

Anthony.



Clear skies!

Anthony.
