Description

Couldnt resist one more go at it when it is was near M5 last night. Getting a bit of comet fatigue but it is a pretty nice end to this series I think

Last night, the comet was higher and cleared the roof enough to shoot a 30 minutes of 30s subs with M5 in the frame with the widefield rig. Processed with Comet alignment and star alignment to transfer the stars between the two. Happy with the result !

EDIT:
Thanks to @Harold Freckhaus , He pointed out the presence of another comet (13P/OLBERS) in the field. I platesolved the image in PI and annotated the comet manually after checking theskylive.com for the position of 13P/OLBERS at the time of this image (2024-10-15 20-23-30CST)
