A Lemmon trail.

Hi,

Took this image last night, wanted to see if comet Lemmon would stand out in a widefield star trail image.
If it wasn't so green, you would miss it, did need to get heavy on the saturation to make it stand out.

Canon 1100D, 18 to 55 zoom at 24mm, f/5, ISO 800 18 minutes, processed in PS7.

Cheers,

Justin.

Great application Justin, shows a good perspective to its circumpolar path, could make for an interesting series over a week or two as it passes the polar region

It's going to be interesting to see the mount behaves this close to the pole.

Yes, looking forward to when it's close to the SMC, that will make a nice image.

Cheers,
