Description

Imaged Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) on the morning of January 26, 2023.  This is a widefield image captured with a standard DSLR lens in parallel to imaging with a telescope.  Not a lot of detail here, but I like capturing the comet relative to the Little Dipper stars Kochab and Pherkad.

Imaged with 85mm/F1.4 Rokinon at F/4 and Nikon D750.  Captured 32 subs with an exposure of 8 seconds at ISO1600.

Processed in Sequator to generate master image and Pixinsight for post-processing.
