Description

Messier 4, a globular cluster in the constellation of Scorpius.  This cluster appears often overlooked by the Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex, so I thought I would see whats inside this little beauty that often appears as as a little white/golden cluster.  I found a nice assortment of colourful stars in addition to the typical golden globular cluster look.
