Description

After the moon had said goodbye and the last cirrus clouds had subsided, I was able to get another useful series of shots. Since the comet's proper motion in front of the background stars had increased further, I had to limit the exposure time to 69s per shot this time to avoid motion blur. The brightness has increased compared to the last few days. Recording details: 29x69s; Takahashi FSQ-106ED (f/5) and Canon EOS 450 Da (ISO 800). Image processing with Astroart and Photoshop.
