M13 and hello

Hi All,

I'm new to this forum.

I just wanted to say "Hi" and what better way to start than with an image. I live in the south of the UK in a place called Rayleigh (30 miles from London), my skies are light polluted... But I make do

This image is M13 was a stack of 20 images at 30 seconds each. At prime focus of a Explorer 200 F/5 with a Canon 300D. ISO was set to 800. I was particually happy to get the NGC 6207 (top left) which is a mag 12 galaxy in the shot. (didn't get the Mag 16 galaxy which is a shame...)

I'm guessing that as it doesn't get much above about 15 degree's that it may be something unusual for some of you.

Regards
Ant
