Comet Lovejoy a Little Late

[Star Catcher (Ted Dobosz)]

Hi All

A bit late loading up these images. Taken last Saturday 20th December. I ran two cameras at once on the Losmandy, a mono SBIG CCD through the RC10 and a Canon 6D DSLR for wide field using a 400mm lens.

Total exposure for both images was 14 x 5 minutes all stacked in DSS. Some artefacts present from stacking the higher mag images from the RC10.

A larger version of the DSLR colour image can be found at my Onedrive URL here:

Thanks for looking
Ted

Nice images there Ted.

Nice one Ted, both exception images. You should turn the mono shot into an animation as it looks like you got a lot detail there, but the tail motion has blurred it.

Thanks. Yes I plan to revisit the data for animations. That is the nice thing about comets, so many ways you can slice and dice
