Description

Taken just before dawn after a full night of imaging Horshead and Flame Nebulas, I managed to capture 5 exposures of Comet C/2020 S3 (Erasmus). Having so few exposures resulted in lower quality than I would have wished, but I think it's still worthy of being published.

The images were taken at Runcu Stone cabin, a Bortle 4 site with an altitude of 850 m ASL. During the night, an SQM value of 20.49 Mag/arcsec² was recorded using an Unihedron SQM-L. Workflow in PixInsight, assisted by Stille.
