Located near Sigma Sgr,which appears orange in color. A rich starfield, though some haze passes by. Much briter than 6528,6522,6558 and 6569 at 47x. No resolution at 134x. Also appears briter in the center than the above objects

Seen in same field at 47x as NGC 6528, 6522 is the brighter of the two,both near Gamma Sgr. At 134x 6522 shows no stars but some mottling is seen
NGC6528 (Globular Cluster, in Sagittarius)
Observer: Larry Wade (e-mail: lab@capital2.com)
Instrument: 10-inch Dobsonian reflector Location: Belzoni, Mississippi, USA
Light pollution: moderate Transparency: excellent Seeing: fair
Time: Thu Sep 10 01:45:00 1998 UT Obs. no.: 384
Visible at 47X in same field as Gamma Sgr. Also seen in the same field is NGC 6522, which is the brighter of the two. At 134X, 6528 is a faint fuzzwith no stars or sparkle. Occasional thin cirrus clouds pass by in this view towards the south The sky is pretty transparent tonite. I can seeall four stars in the bowl of the Little Dipper. The dimmest is listed as mag 4.9 on a chart for limiting magnitude that I got from some S&T site off the net. A cold front just passed thru today, this is very clear for my moderately light polluted backyard which usually has mag 3.5 to 4.0 skies. The Milky Way glows brightly tonite.
