Description

I wasn't happy with the first go at this one so I had another go.
This time used longer 180s luminance subs tracking the comet and 120s RGB subs at sidereal rate to get better shaped stars
When I came to combining the comet and stars together the colour image was very underwhelming as at +13.9 it's not exactly the brightest comet in the sky at the moment. For the final image I went with a negative monochrome again and added the RGB data into the luminance for some extra signal.
It's not as colourful but the faint tail shows up better.
