Description

My first attempt at tracking the comet itself against the stars, by using the comet option on PHD2 and CdC. It did not work at first, by using SkySafari I could see the CdC Declination speed was the wrong sign. After adjusting that it worked pretty good!

Stacked in DSS using the 'Maximum' option and then processed in PS Elements

Somehow these comet-tracked images make me dizzy
