Here is an image of the Globular Cluster M22. I did take this one with cloudy skies. We have a monsoon weather pattern going here in San Diego that I hope breaks soon.

I have attached a mid size thumbnail. A full size, full resolution image as well as exposure and processing details are available at:

Scope was my C8 at f/5.1, the camera was the Artemis285

Exposure time was a short 28 minutes.

Thanks Tyler.

I did mention on the webpage that there is a planetary nebula in M22 (http://jthommes.com/Astro/m22.htm). but I did not point it out.

Here is a small crop with an arrow pointing to planetary nebula IRAS 18333-2357 in M22. My ID is based on SEDS info.
