First, while waiting for these objects to rise, I snapped the following shot of Saturn:<\/p>\n

\"Saturn<\/a><\/p>\n

By this point of the evening, most of the people had packed it up. Only four of us remained by about 3 AM.\u00a0At this point, we start hitting the globular clusters. First is M5:<\/p>\n

\"M5\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I got the shot of M13 with my autoguider:<\/p>\n

\"M13<\/a><\/p>\n

Then M92, another bright glob in Hercules:<\/p>\n

\"M92\"<\/a><\/p>\n

M107 in Ophiuchus:<\/p>\n

\"M107\"<\/a><\/p>\n

M12 in Ophiuchus:<\/p>\n

\"M12\"<\/a><\/p>\n

M10 in Ophiuchus:<\/p>\n

\"M10\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And M14 in Ophiuchus:<\/p>\n

\"M14\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A quick break from the globs to get M57, the Ring Nebula:<\/p>\n

\"M57\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And back to the globs with M56 in Lyra:<\/p>\n

\"M56\"<\/a><\/p>\n

M9 in Ophiuchus:<\/p>\n

\"M9\"<\/a><\/p>\n

M4 in Scorpius:<\/p>\n

\"M4\"<\/a><\/p>\n

M80 in Scorpius:<\/p>\n

\"M80\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Next two open clusters in Cygnus. M29, called the Stubby Dipper:<\/p>\n

\"M29\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And M39:<\/p>\n

\"M39\"<\/a><\/p>\n

M71 is another glob in Sagitta:<\/p>\n

\"M71\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then M27, the Dumbbell Nebula:<\/p>\n

\"M27\"<\/a><\/p>\n

M19 in Ophiuchus:<\/p>\n

\"M19\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And M62 in Ophiuchus:<\/p>\n

\"M62\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The quality of these shots gets significantly worse as we get closer to the horizon and sunrise. I got M11, the Wild Duck Cluster:<\/p>\n

\"M11\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And M26, and open cluster in Scutum:<\/p>\n

\"M26\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Next is the early morning objects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
