M13, a globular star cluster located in the constellation of Hercules. It’s also called the Great Globular Cluster of Hercules. It has several hundred thousand stars and is about 21000 light years away.
The final image is a 10 seconds exposure from my 16” Skywatcher dobsonian with the AZ tracking, which is not designed to do long exposures. I’m planning to do another imaging session of M13 with equatorial tracking, so stay tuned!
The camera was a canon eos R5
Sky Bortle level: 7
Enjoy!
