Started by zeroing in on α Coronae Borealis and increasing declination until I hit the expected star pattern.
Started by navigating to ν Coronae Borealis (since it's very distinguishable) and decreased RA from there.
Navigated to ζ Herculis and increased declination until the cluster appeared. Not the best night for viewing a cluster, but I was anxious to see one again. Very bright and seems to be densely packed.
Increased RA from M13 until π and ρ came into view.
Moved behind a power-line right after I located it, so I had to wait for a few minutes until it appeared again. Had trouble distinguishing the sibling from other background stars in the FOV.
Navigated to ν Herculis and decreased declination. Very neat split. Both are almost of equal size and magnitude.
Increased declination from π Herculis. At first glance, appeared to be smaller than M13. Overtime using AV, I got the impression that the size was almost as large as M13 but more faint around the perimeter.
