The brilliant full moon and murky skies did their best to obscure views of the much-hyped comet last night, 17 October.
In the circumstances I was pleased to be able to get a sequence of 60 shots that after a fair amount of processing (stacking etc), gave the image below.
Taken with the Canon R5 & EF 100mm f2.8 macro, 5 sec exposure, ISO 1600, f2.8.
Note the faint reverse tail can just be seen below and to the right of comet nucleus. Best viewed large by clicking on the image.
