Description

First light with the Rokinon 135 f2. The lens did not disappoint. I had high standards after the 85mm f1.4 Sigma Art was so impressive. This lens looks fantastic as others have demonstrated. What a fantastic comet. I have one more image to process. It will be bittersweet to complete processing on Comet Neowise. A complete blast.

The views of the comet from Spruce Knob were simply some of the finest astronomical views I have ever had. The ion tail seemed to stretch unending into the atmosphere. What a joy to view.

30 images of 60 seconds were stacked in Pixinsight on Comet and Stars. All images at f2 ISO 1250
