Description

Capture of C/2017 K2 (PanSTARRS) from my backyard, mid capture time 8pm 15th July 2022, AEST (Brisbane) time.  
Stack of stars for main star field, followed by starless removal and removal of the stretched comet from the frame.
Stack of Comet head, with Adaptive Rejection to dull the star trails - followed my manual blending of the remaining trails to smooth the background and comet.
