Description

Comet C/2013 R1 Lovejoy in Leo

First collaboration between Emmanuele Sordini and me

Data acquired by Emmanuele, processing by me in PixinInsight.

10x150 sec With a Canon 450D at 1600 ISO from a highly light polluted sky in Pianura Padana

It was an hard processing due to gradients, passing veils and fast comet movement between the stars.

The real challenge was merging the two images: one aligned on stars, the other on the Comet.

Revision B annotated with PixInsight ImageSolver and AnnotateImage

Many thanks to Emmanuele for sharing his precious data
