Messier 3, May’25

34,000 light-years away in Canes Venatici.
Captured this globular cluster after midnight on May 16, 2025, during my May Messier tour.

Number 3 in my little May tour through the Messier globular clusters. I only began the imaging session of Messier 3 after midnight in the early hours of May 16th and wrapped it up shortly after 2:00 AM.
