Deep image from 25 December
Hi all
here is todays effort. The conditions were better and the comet more visible to the eye, though there was still cumulous cloud on the horizon. here is a compilation of the best frames I captured.
37x6secs ISO1600, 50mmf1.8 lens EOS600D In camera N/R on. I had to have a few goes at aligning as Iris software didnt like the fact the stars moved so much during the imaging.
Larger sized shot
here .
Ive got a lot more frames, I might see if I can do something with them later on.
Fancy imaging a bright comet on Christmas Day. Comet Lovejoy really is a Christmas Comet!
Scott
