Description

Great Globular Cluster in Hercules (M13)
Same night as the Leo Triplet image. 11 mph winds with 34 mph gusts! I had to similarly go with very short subs in hopes of getting something usable between the wind, yet many of the "good" subs still had wonky stars. I will also likely revisit this target on a night with better weather.
