Description

Test shot and first light for my new ASI294MM. Bin 2, default.

Lots to critique here, but certainly my best M13, though I've not done too many. I find it tricky to process compared to galaxies and clouds. Maybe not very sharp either, as it was fairly low elevation and I didn't get picky over seeing. On better nights, this would be good to try the Bin 1 mode for luminance.

2.3hrs total LRGB. Unity gain (120).

Propeller is especially visible in the thumbnail, center left.
