Managed to get a few hours on M13 during the short night.

About 2 hours worth of subs.

Guiding was OAG / QHY5 / PHD

Processing in Maxim and CS3, individual channels processed and re-merged.

Hope you like it.

Very nice image, Cat. Crisp, tight stars all the way across the field, and great resolution at the core. Did you do any blending of different exposure lengths to preserve the core detail?

Very nice shot. Great sharpness.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.

All 5 min subs, no differing lengths.

A bit of processing in MaximDL and CS3.
