This globular cluster is really breathtaking. More than a dozen of stars can be separated also with direct vision. By using averted vision, this number jumps to several dozens. It is not really getting denser towards the centre, although what we see is actually the core already: the real diametre of the cluster is actually 21', yet the half of its gross weight stays inside a circle of 1.1'.

Awesome sketches! I love it! I was curious what size and what kind of eyepiece were you using with each sketch? I do see the magnification power with each sketch. Thanks - let me know, email address
