Hi Everyone,

Here is my M13 from last night. It was taken between storms.

AP Traveler f/6
ST-10XME
RGB 16:16:16 min; Bin 1x1

I love the star colors!

Tom

That the color I'm tryng to pull out of mine......nice job! Looks like you had some heavy blooming to deal with. What subexposure times did you use, and how do you go about removing blooms?

I like this one!

Very Nice Tom! Very nice detail and processing.
By coincidence, I imaged M13 with my Traveler at prime focus last night too. It was so misty that my STV went cookie on me a couple of times and I wondered if I was autoguiding on mist. Anyway, my image was taken with a Canon 20D, definitely not as good as yours. Total exposure 25 min, ISO 1600. With the 20D, there is significant field curvature at the edges which is expected for these fast refractors.
