Description

Popular comet 12P/Pons-Brooks photographed on March 7, 2024, from Bortle 3 location during starting night.
The sunset clouds appeared in nice red on a couple of first images of the session - I integrated all the frames and then reapplied the 1swt images so the clouds would stand out a bit more and that's why it appeares to be combines with airglow.
Relatively high humidity, on other hand, made the stars appear bigger and with some color halos around them.

All the pictures were shot tracked (SAgti) so the hill appears a little bit moved - shoud've stopped the tracker for the foreground shot, but comet hunting made me forget
