Tom,
Welcome to the boards!

That's a nice image you have there of M13, especially for an 80mm refractor.

If I could perhaps give two minor suggestions/comments?:
1) The colour of alot of the stars seems a bit purple to me.
2) A little unsharp mask could be applied to sharpen up the stars a little.

Overall though, a fine image.

Sorry about that, I grabbed the wrong image to post. Here is the better version.

I have to say I like seeing the "before" and "after" here .... even if it was by accident .... shows how big a difference a bit of photoshop skill can make!

Yeah, the second image is more, well, realistic! Almost like being there (albeit very far away, but you know what I mean!).
