Description

My attempt at capturing C/2022 E3 (ZTF). It was supposed to be a try version but I am happy with the overall results. Taken on January 25, 2023, from Northern Arizona, 7000ft altitude, bottle 2-3 skies. I followed Adam Block's instructions on using CometAlignment in Pixinsight. LRBB with a QHY268m and a Sharpstar 61 EDPH II refractor with a Starizona .65 reducer, resulting in FL=220mm at ~f/3.6. Some cropping. L=36x60sec, RGB=12x90sec each. Strangely, if you choose solar system, astrobin expects you to enter your video information but I could find a way to input frames details.
