M 12 SPA-2 LRGB
Here's my rendition of M 12. M 12 is located in the constellation Ophiuchus at a distance of 23,000 light-years from Earth and shines at an apparent magnitude of 7.7. There's 2 nice little galaxies in the background at about 5:00 and there "may" be a comet located at the very bottom of the frame at about 6:30.
Anyway, hope ya like it!
