C/2023 a3

[astronobob]

Overnight and early morning Saturday (Yesterday) saw cloud and even Lightning off the SeQld Coast but this morning was quite clear and storms stabilizing much of the atmosphere over the darker oceanic skies.

Howdy and with only the 60D II on a tripod with 'L' 70-200mm to taste this brighting comet.
From 12 Raws, 200mm, F2.8 fully open, 1.3secs, ISO 4000 produced this result of Tsuchinshan in the Predawn over the Broadwater.

Hope worth a Squizz,,,

Kind words thanx Ross, I was dropping that Google Maps man on and hunting out streets-lights the night before, this park had some smaller path lights and yes the broadwater gives a good uninterrupted view - :thumbsup:
