M13 Tonight was created by michaeloconnell
Well, after nearly dying of starvation from lack of clear skies, FINALLY got a little gap of clear sky this evening.
Took 30 no. 30sec exposures of M13 with the SBIG ST8 and TEC140.



Consturctive feedback on how to improve the image is always appreciated.

Going back out again now to take more images.

Clear Skies,

Hard to improve on that Michael.
Perfect focus.
Even the tiny spiral up near the top right shows detail.

Sweet :D

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the universe is winning.

Hi Michael

The only feedback I have on this image is simply “WOW”! :shock:

Will you be adding this image to your excellent image gallery on your website soon? Can you add some images of your equipment set-up on your home-page? The TEC 140 + SBIG combo seems to be really doing the business for you, best of luck feasting on some clear skies and hopefully soon!

Clear skies
