Description

This wider field of view features both M13 and small galactic neighbor, NGC6207, located 30 million light years away. I processed the galaxy and core of M13 separately from the stars in M13. I brought the starless version into Photoshop and used a mask to further brighten and increase vibrance/saturation of the galaxies. This preserved in the core of the globular cluster which, while bright, preserves individual stars.
