Description

My 1st Globular Cluster. I had planned on about 3h of integration time, but it took me way to long to _find_ M13. My GOTO put me in the vicinity, and then I took high ISO 10s framing shots, blindly slewing around the area. Finally, I decided to pull up a star chart and compare it to what I was seeing. Yureka. A couple framing slews later, bingo.

I have to diagnose the dark shadow in the lower right; I suspect I have an obstruction in the light path (perhaps my guide camera is protruding to deeply?)
