One Hundred Thousand Strong

M5

I find Messier 5 to be one of the most beautiful globular clusters in the catalog.
Individual stars resolved nicely around a bright core at medium magnification.
This sketch was rendered on standard copy paper with a .5mm mechanical pencil. Post
processing was done with MGI Photosuite III.

  1. Jason,

    Great sketch. You and Dale are correct, M-5 is one of the finest globular clusters. You have captured it in all its glory.
