M3 in LRGB exposure mix

Wanted to see if the processing of M13 that I did would work on another globular cluster. It came out not quite the same, but definitely pretty close. I know globulars are not the most favorite targets in the Astro Photography world, personally I like them a lot, although it is very difficult to get the same experience that you have with an eyepiece looking at them. So the goal is to make it as close as possible, which requires probably more processing compared to most of the nebula targets. I went again with a mixture of 300 and 30 second exposures, which works I believe very well for globulars, maybe even for other targets, will definitely try this one day after the rainy season.
Again a "leftover" of the Spring targets that I could catch, have to dig through the hard disk if there are any left ... time for some clear nights, that's for sure!

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
