Description

The asymmetry is striking in this "HD" image of the Globular Cluster M5.

This image is a composite of 47 x 30 seconds, 47 x 60s and 47 x 120s lights taken through a Cff 105mm refractor and a ZWO ASI 071mcPro. The captures were started on June 26, 2019 and finished the next night during "no moon" time.

The colors are calibrated to represent their near true hues in pixinsight however I over saturated the original ( I like colored stars - not over done).
