Photo description / processing
First of all, this is my first globular cluster.
It turned out pretty decent, I think. I'm not sure if more integration is needed, since it seems like I can't get any more out of it anyway. As for the bad news, it turns out I had not 6 but 7 panels, which explains why I couldn't properly capture much of what I had planned.

Regarding "managing to capture a lot of what I planned" — were you, by any chance, planning to shoot emission hydrogen nebulae? If so, the camera needs to be modified — the filter that cuts out the infrared range must be removed. With that filter, such nebulae are difficult to photograph. Yes, light pollution is a big hindrance, but a Bortle class 6–7 sky is no obstacle for true astrophotography enthusiasts! :) People even shoot under Bortle class 9 light pollution.
Clear skies and less light pollution!
