Description

Dear astronomers,

After I had told my kids about the comet 12P/Pons-Brooks they were determined to have it as our next target.

Unfortunately, it is rather low on the horizon where we live and the weather was pretty bad, too. We probably should have gone to some rural location, but due to job committments, we were only able to image it from our garden when there was the opportunity for it...

There were still quite some clouds, but we were able to gather "some" data. There are definitely better images out there, but for us this image is special, as it is our first comet image and it was quite a struggle.

Hope you like it and clear skies,
Timo
