This is a stack of about 90 3-minute images of M13, the Hercules Cluster (about 4.5 hours of data). My goal was not to blow out the bright core, but keeping that as a goal during processing seems to sacrifice some of the brilliance. So here's one of each.
And then, if I just stick with it, sometimes I can land on the compromise I was searching for.

I remember seeing M13 for the first time. The scope panned into it while I was looking through the eyepiece and I spontaneously said "Wow!"
@jurban It's a definite wow.
