Comet Gerradd

I decided to take advantage of some clear skies tonight and give shooting comet Gerradd a go. The moon was almost full so this image is inverted to show more detail and less light polution.

High-Resolution Capture of Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS)

Captured under Bortle 4 skies on a moonless night along the Blue Ridge Parkway, I stacked 60 images of Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS) using an APO 135mm lens and ZWO 2600 Duo OSC camera. With 60-second exposures and added calibration files, I was able to bring out the comet's vibrant coma, detailed tail, and striking anti-tail.

Comet Lemmon

Battling clouds, failed guiding, and a rushed manual focus, I still managed to capture this stunning comet from our Harold Campbell dark site using my Askar FRA600 and ZWO 2600 Duo.
