Messier 22 Globular Star Cluster in The Constellation Sagittarius 2020-05-28

            Aberkenfig, South Wales
Lat +51.542  Long -3.593

Skywatcher 254mm Newtonian Reflector, Olympus E410 at prime focus. EQ6 Syntrek Mount.
 
   27 x 40s at ISO 800
   Also 10 dark frames.

Processed with Deep Sky Stacker and final levels adjusted with G.I.M.P.

The final image is cropped but it still displays some slight coma towards the edges. This is one drawback of a parabolic f/4.8 Newtonian.

A fairly satisfactory outcome considering the light pollution. Also, the target does not get far above the horizon at my location.
