Description

Here's my second attempt at shooting C/2022 E3 (ZTF). This time I was able to capture the "Green Comet" as it passed by NGC5907 seen in the lower center of the frame. NGC5907 is a "knife edge" galaxy (due to its orientation to use) and is approximately 50 Million Light Years from Earth! 

This photo is a combination of 28x300" exposures. I used my @teleskop_service TS Optics 90mm CF APO refractor telescope with a .8x reducer (430mm focal length.) The camera I used was my @zwoasi ASI 2600MC Pro, mounted on a @skywatcherusa EQ6R PRo. For processing I used Pixinsight and processed the star/galaxy image separate from the comet itself.
