Description

M13 from Bortel 8/9 skies in the Wilshire District of Los Angeles.  This was a First Light Test so I could get some Lights, Darks, Flats, and Flat Darks to practice with my pre/post processing software and to get an idea of where the scope was with regards to filter focus, guiding, etc..  I wasn't following strict processes as I only wanted something for my processing software.  Example, I shot the lights at -10C but the calibration frames at 0C the next day, I shot more blue frames than red or green frames, etc.; that said, I was surprised with the results and decided to post them.
