C/2020 F8 Swan with Wolf-Lundmark-Melotte Object.
This is my effort at Comet C/2020 F8 Swan using my Star Adventurer mount.
This is the result of 21 x 30 second exposures using a ZWO ASI183 MC-Pro coupled to a Sigma 120-300mm Sports lens at 300mm, F2.8
The small smudge to the left of the comet is the barred irregular galaxy PGC143 a.k.a. Wolf-Lundmark-Melotte Object.
It took me a long time to find the comet with the Star Adventurer at 300mm - I ended up using my 952mm refractor on my EQ6-R purely as a finderscope to help me find the location amongst visible stars !
