Description

We try to photograph this object almost every year, but the conditions are never ideal: good seeing, mirror stability, etc.
It was finally time to show off the scopes capabilities.
Certainly one of the sharpest M13s out there, and considering the telescope is made to be "soft" its more than a WOW. 
I am usually the type of guy that says Globular Clusters are boring, but this image made me even more interested in shooting more of them. 
Clusters like these are very polarizing in the community, some like them, some hate them. Some like HDR, some like them to be clipped in the core. 
A true master knows how to balace both, I would not call myself that because I have much to learn but im getting there. You cannot please everyone, but I hope you like it.
