Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF)

No introduction required for this target. I can definitely say that comets pose a unique challenge with processing.

Also, this is the first light for my Edge HD 11 and iOptron CEM70EC2. I bought both over 2 months ago and ever since I had a total of about 5-7 days of clear skies. It took me a number of nights to get everything worked out with the mount and boy was it worth the wait! I was getting guiding numbers below 0.5 in PhD2 which is fantastic for me. The best part is that I was not fighting the mount most of the night. Balancing this mount took some work because both axis were smooth as silk. I can't wait to take the Hyperstar off and shoot some galaxies at f/7 and f/10.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
