Description

Captured comet NEOWISE from the backyard. Despite a number of obstructions I managed to capture a total of 30 minutes of data before it went out of view. The image is composed of a total of 60 subs at 30 seconds each and unity gain. The processing was quite challenging and some artifacts in the star images still remain in the image. I really like the colour of the core and was surprised to actually see the first part of the ion tail as well.
