Description

While testing collimation I shot M13 during the full moon night of May 14th. I shot 498 15sec exposures. The sky conditions deteriorated rapidly during the night, however, så I ended up stacking just 68 subs, which is not nearly enough. So it became an exercise in post processing instead to see what I could salvage. The upshot of this is that this is not the best M13 I've seen out there, but it isn't the worst either. I will return to this subject when I'm satisfied with my collimation and the moon isn't out.
