Hi Anthony,

Great image m13 is one of the best things to look at trough a telescope I'll never forget the first time i saw it, it's up there with saturn. :D

Thanks Carl and everyone else!

The colours are slightly muted and I suspect the Lum overwhelmed the RGB portion. I am eagerly waiting for an ST-10XME which has much better QE across the whole spectrum and hopefully there will be a much better result shortly.

Another clear evening tonight ... I hope to nail M23 (open cluster) and M92 (globular cluster).

Any suggestions for which "closed" cluster to pursue?
