hi folks,

after a long break due to bad skies and a lot of work I images M13.
I was already wondering if I had to learn handling my scope after more then one month abstinence...

seeing was really nice in the sundaynight with 6/10 and transparency was really very good!

Dietmar,
Nice image! I really like the clever framing in this image. I makes me think that you carefully plan your imaging sessions.

I like the color as well. M13 is a globular that really seems to have contrasting yellow and blue stars in the mix - you have captured that well.

Diets,

Another fine image there! I like how you keep the stars so small - maybe it's because of your (compared to mine) higher-resolution setup?
