I first imaged M13 in 2013 and it was my first serious attempt at astrophotography. You can see that image and post here. Ten years later, some better equipment, a lot of new skills and it's a whole different view. Some interesting facts about M13:
* First observed by Edmond Halley in 1714
* Consists of about 1 million stars
* It's about 26,000 light years from Earth
* It's visible without aid under dark skies with good vision
