M13

This image of M13 was taken using my Canon EOS D50 DSLR camera. I set it up at prime focus using my 10 inch f/4.8 reflector, an IDAS filter mounted on a Vixen Atlux mount. I captured 10, 15. 20 and 30 second sub frames with matching dark frames.  Total exposure time was 15 minutes. The data was then averaged and stacked using deep Sky Stacker and Paint shop Pro software.
