I had searched for this previously with no luck, so I was surprised at how easily I located it this time, especially on such a bright night. It looked like a perfect fuzzy ball, it reminded me of a dandelion. I could not resolve any individual stars this time, but will try again on a darker night.

Thanks, I will definitely do that next time I'm out!

A wonderful object, always worth spending some time on. Can take quite a bit of magnification as well. Try M92 not far from M13 if you havn't done it already. Interesting to compare them both IMHO.
