I reprocessed some old data the other day. A year's improvement in processing skills made a noticeable difference in this image.
When the weather clears, I'd like to try this one again with some new exposures.
Attached is a mid-sized image.

Beautiful shot Dan.. 8)
The large ellow and blue stars make a nice touch in this wide field view, not to mention the small galaxy on top left adds a nice perspective.

Thanks for sharing!

Great shot! The 'propeller' is seen clearly.

Dan: Superb! Being a strictly visual observer, I congratulate you particularly on producing an image that comes close to the actual appearance of M13 (when viewed under perfect dark sky conditions), and the inclusion of galaxy NGC 6207 which has been beyond my visual reach.

That is very nice processing indeed!

Nice star colours, a yellow and a blue star there and the glob white.
