Final Attempt at comet processing

[Clarkey]

Having spent hours and hours trying to get a decent image of C/2023 E3, I have finished with this. The background is still not good, but despite my efforts I cannot get it completely clean without losing comet detail. I might return to it at some time in the future - I am sure there is a better way to process this. (I did follow various guides, but the slight star trails remained regardless). If anyone knows of a fool-proof method of comet processing, please feel free to point me in the right direction.

If I had this result I would be wearing a huge grin and showing it off to everyone I know.

Congrats, I’d be proud of an image like that.
