My first comet image in 28 Years...
Hi all, The last time I photographed a comet was Halley in 1986. Then t was an old Pentax with 400 ISO Ilford B&W film push processed to 3200 ISO. Today I feel like a child playing in a sandbox. My pix is 35x50 seconds and when stacked on stars, the comet was obliterated to a weird elongated fuzzy mess. When stacked by the comet itself I get the star trails. I see shots over on the solar system section where peeps are stacking on both stars and comet. How is this done? I don't see any option like that in Nebulosity 3 (the program I use for stacking). Is this only available in DSS or is there a workflow to use in order to get a tidy star field and a nice comet? Any guidance appreciated.
Cheers,
Bruce.
