Description

I shot 2 globular clusters tonight, M15 and M2. While these objects all appear quite similar at first glance, they each have different star densities as you look farther from the core. I actually think they look more interesting with smaller scopes than larger ones, as the stars blend together and appear nebulous. We will have to see if I still have that opinion when I actually own a larger scope.
