The Great Globular Cluster in Hercules - an ideal target when there are only a few hours of darkness and a bright full Moon to contend with. M13, as it's usually known, is a well-known object and I've imaged it several times before but not for a long time and not with the current set-up. I think it looks better than previous attempts even though the object appears smaller due to the shorter focal length.
Messier 13 (M13) or NGC 6205 is a globular cluster located 22,200 light years away in the constellation Hercules. It contains about 300,000 stars and it's mass is estimated to be about half a million solar masses with a diameter of 145 light years. M13 is estimated to be 11.65 billion years old.
The small object above M13, near the top of the image, is NGC 6207, a spiral galaxy about 30 million light years away from Earth. For those with sharp eyes there is another galaxy between NGC 6207 and M13, IC 4617. This object is estimated to be approximately 489 million light years away.

Often the hand crafted frames that surround paintings in museums are worth more than the painting which they surround. I am constantly amazed by the beauty of these creations.
Both taken this week in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The stained glass is in city hall. The pub with the framed mirrors had the best lemonade.

In 1939 Hitler and Stalin made an agreement (The German-Soviet Nonagression Pact, or Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact) to divide Poland. They then promptly invaded Poland and began systematic mass murder and looting, campaigns that did not abate after Germany and the USSR went to war with each other in 1941. Many museums we visited had some sort of exhibit like the above. The empty frames commemorate the vast cultural heritage looted during the Second World War and the country's continuing project of reaquisition. Empty Frames exhibit at the Wilanów Palace, Warsaw.
An ongoing project of curating original art work in the public space. Members of the collective send framed works to one artist, and that artist installs the works on the streets.
The builder John Libby has three demonstration frames at their office. They are nicely lit at night and easily visible from I-295 in Freeport, Maine. The moon was quite bright when I took this long exposure so it is over exposed. In the background are light trails from traffic on I 295. The previous picture was taken from the left side of this view.
At John Libby Construction, we utilize the newest construction methods, materials, and technologies to guarantee you are getting a home that is as advanced as possible.
The annual running cost of our homes is significantly less than most, due to our home design and construction methods. Our homes are designed to be low maintenance and we focus on using quality, long lasting materials, new heating and cooling systems, and place more emphasis on insulation and the building shell.
Optimum Value Engineering
We utilize OVE for the framing of our homes. This incorporates lining up framing members from the foundation to the roof system for strength, but removing any unnecessary wood from our walls and roof system. This minimizes thermal bridging and heat loss through the walls. [Website]
