Description

M92 is a globular cluster in Hercules worth checking out in addition to its more famous neighbor (M13).    It was interesting to read that this cluster is estimated to be one of the oldest in the Milky Way with an age nearing that of the Universe.

This is the first time shooing a glob with my new camera so still lots to learn here to get this right.   As a bonus, there's a nice collection of small galaxies near the bottom of the frame.

LRGB composition with 100 frames Lum, 40 each RGB.
