An accidental Jacques

[Phillyo]

I was out last night with my 105mm Macro lens on my Astrotrac trying to image the Heart and Soul Nebulae but unfortunately clouds halted play. This is a very quick, and messy, 4 x 10min stack with no calibration frames (I lost 7 x 10min to clouds!). However, when I stacked and processed the images I noticed I'd caught myself a comet!

As I say, the image is very messy but I'm chuffed to have caught the Comet without even trying haha.

Thanks,

Phil.
