Description

Recently I've been fascinated by globular clusters again. It's amazing to me that we do not understand yet how they form and just imagining there being 600.000 to a million stars in M13 just orbiting our milky way galaxy together seems fascinating. This image is actually an accident. Originally I wanted to capture M3, but somehow had M13 selected in the NINA framing assistant when I transferred the target. But I'll take it

A couple of years ago I shot this target with me Esprit, it's very interesting to see the difference the aperture makes.
