Description

The weather was not very cooperative in the last month, but still the scope was able to gather 25 hours of data and this turned out to be a rather deep image of M3 (for my Bortle 6 location) with stars up to magnitude 22.5m.

BTW, M3 is probably the only object from Messier catalog with its number written in the stars There is a group of stars above the upper right bright star (BD+29 2448) of the triangle around M3. They look like a number 3 to me.

Thanks for looking,

Vitali
