The "other" globular in Hercules. This beauty is somewhat overshadowed by its much more famous neighbour M13
Magnitude 9.4 - Size 4.5' - class. IV
01 Jun 2002 - C8-DX at f/6.3 - MX516
L = 10 min
Small but condensed globular so quite easy to observe. It is not resolvable in typical amateur telescope, however
M4 (NGC 6121) in Scorpius
Magnitude 5,9 - Size 26,3'

M12 (NGC 6218) in Ophiuchus
Magnitude 6.7 - Diameter 12.2'
18 July 2003 - C8 at f/6.3 - MX516 - 12 min in high-res mode - DDP
M14 (NGC 6402) in Ophiuchus

Not as spectacular as its bigger cousins.
M71 (NGC 6838) in Sagitta
Magnitude 8.2 - Diameter 6.1'
18 July 2003 - C8 at f/6.3 - MX516 - LRGB = 10:2:4:4 min (L in high-res mode) - DDP
This object has been classified both as an open cluster and as a globular cluster through history but now most scientists think it is indeed a globular cluster
