Description

Back in June the weather in Houston was unpredictable to say the least... It was difficult to tell just when the clouds would be rolling in (those of you who live near any coast know what I'm talking about lol). Due to the uncertainty I figured why not try to grab a "quick and dirty" imaging session, and what better target than the bright and colorful M13. The Great Globular Cluster in Hercules is 145 light years in diameter and is ~25,000 light years from Earth. This is the first star cluster I've ever imaged and although it was "quick and dirty" I welcome any feedback or suggestions ;)
