I put up my ST-237 last night and shot M3 with my 10D instead. Clouds rolled in around midnight so I only managed to get eight 5 minute shots. The 10D was mounted on my AP-130 F/6 autoguided with an ST-4 mounted on a TV-85 all ridding on a G11/Gemini. It was really windy last night, but the G11 was rock solid.

Well done, Ralph. You have great color, sharp stars, and a nicely resolved core. Globs aren't as easy to process as one would initially think.

Ralph,
You really resolved the cluster beautifully. I always think globs shot wide really brings out their drama. Great shot.
