Second attempt at T Draconis. Took me almost half an hour of zooming in on stars north of ξ Draconis before I was able to locate it. Sibling to a much brighter star. I could detect a yellow-orange color right off the bat. AV was almost necessary, as it was very faint.
First caught sight of it in the finder-scope, looked like an unusually fat star. AV does not do much until zoomed in to 200x, then you just begin to get glimpses of shape and definition.
Before heading in for the night, I decided to take a peek at M13 again and attempt a closer zoom on it. I was able to push the zoom to 200x and maintain good clarity. M13 filled the eyepiece at 200x, this is the best view I've ever had of it!
