M13
Object: M13 (NGC6205)
Globular Cluster
 Const.: Hercules
Camera: STL11000M Scope: Tele Vue NP-127is Mount: Losmandy Titan
Filter(s): L:R:G:B Exposure: 7x1m:7x1m:7x1m:7x1m blank
The globular cluster M13 in Hercules. The galaxies NGC6207 and IC4617 are also visible. This image of M13 was acquired using an STL11000M CCD camera on a Tele Vue NP-127is. It is a color composite of 7 minutes of unfiltered luminance and 7 minutes each of red, green and blue filtered data. The images were calibrated and stacked and auto color balanced using AIP4Win V2. This image has been cropped down from its original size of 4008x2672.

Globular Cluster
 Const.: Hercules
Camera: SXV-H9 Scope: Tele Vue NP-101 Mount: Losmandy Titan
Filter(s): L:R:G:B Exposure: 6x4m:4x4m:4x4m:4x4m blank
The globular cluster M13 in Hercules. This image of M13 was acquired using an SXV-H9 CCD camera on a Tele Vue NP-101. It is a color composite of 24 minutes of unfiltered luminance and 16 minutes each of red, green and blue filtered data. The images were calibrated and stacked and G2V color balanced using AIP4Win V2. This image has been cropped down from its original size of 1396x1040.

Globular Cluster
 Const.: Hercules
Camera: SXV-H9 Scope: Vixen R200SS Mount: Losmandy Titan
Filter(s): IR block Exposure: 32x60s
Shot during a full moon
The globular cluster M13 in Hercules. This image is a stack of 32 one minute exposures using an SXV-H9 CCD camera on a Vixen R200SS 8" f/4 Newtonian equipped with a Paracorr. It was acquired during a full moon. The exposures were calibrated, defect-corrected and stacked using AIP4WIN. This image has been resampled down from its original size of 1380x940.
 
M13
Object: M13 (NGC6205)
Globular Cluster
 Const.: Hercules
Camera: HX916 Scope: AP130 Mount: AP1200GTO
Filter(s): IR block Exposure: 1x120s blank
The globular cluster M13 in Hercules. A single two minute exposure using a 5" f/6 refractor. The background was smoothed, using AIP4WIN's mean of median half background smoothing tool. A DDP was then applied, using the defaults automatically calculated by AIP4WIN. This image has been resampled down from its original size of 1300x1030.
