M13, the Great Globular Cluster. Located in the constellation of Hercules., it is roughly 27,100 light years away from Earth. The cluster is the brightest globular cluster in the northern hemisphere, visible to the naked eye under dark skies. My first astrophotography image taken with the Takahashi FSQ-85EDX, also called the Baby-Q.
