Description

Here's a stack of 15 2 minute exposures of Terry Lovejoy's second christmas comet. This is a combination of two stacks, one registered on the comet nucleus to stack out the stars, and the other to stack out the comet and keep the stars. A fair bit of denoising, but no sharpening used.

Note the knots in the tail structure.
