Scientific paper

We present new BVI observations of the Galactic globular cluster M15 obtained with the 2.4 meter Hilter telescope at the MDM Observatory. The observations were made under good seeing conditions and cover an area of 25x25 arcminutes centered on the cluster. The observations have been reduced using the DAOPHOT stellar photometry package and extensive artificial star tests to produce detailed color-magnitude diagrams and luminosity functions. The data extends from the tip of the red giant branch to below the main sequence turnoff. We compare the CMD and luminosity functions to Dartmouth Stellar Evolution Program (DSEP) models.
