Personally I tend to favor M3. Now if you speak of southern hemisphere globulars, I really love ω Centauri as well as 47 Tucanae. Too bad they're way below horizon for me, since I live at 51°N. -------------------- Tal-200K (#199) with JMI NGF-Mini2M focuser on GEM3 • Astro-Tech AT80ED on Orion Sirius EQ-G with EQDIR & home made wireless EQDIRECT • Celestron Regal LX 8x42 & 10x42 • Helios 15x70 ATM 14" f/5 (designing mirror cell and filter wheel/focuser) • ATM 10" f/6 Portable Truss (polishing) • ATM 10" f/25 Dall-Kirkham (primary: polishing, secondary: #120 grit) AstroForecast Post Extras       Entire thread Subject Posted by Posted on M-13 at 200x magnification GeorgeNC 07/03/08 10:45 AM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification bicparker   07/03/08 01:48 PM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification JakeT93   07/03/08 09:38 PM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification lymorkiew45   07/03/08 10:09 PM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification desertrefugee   07/03/08 10:51 PM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification RussL   07/03/08 11:06 PM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification Mr Q   07/04/08 01:49 PM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification Olivier Biot   07/05/08 10:21 AM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification Paul_R   07/05/08 12:03 PM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification Illinois   07/03/08 11:38 AM Extra information 6 registered and 3 anonymous users are browsing this forum.
