Comet 12P Pons Brooks and Friend from Cornwall


Recommended Posts

Comet hunting on Thursday 28th March at Green Lane, Delabole 🥶. Around 9.30pm and finally managed it. The meteor is in the centre of the image slightly greeny blue with a faint tail behind and a bonus bright meteor in the top left photo bombing.
Taken with a Canon 600D and 50mm Yongnuo lens.
Sky 8 secs 3200iso F1. 8
Foreground 60 secs 800iso f2.2
Processed in Photoshop.

Only a single exposure as I wasn't happy with how the stacked image looked.

Nicely done, Lee! No-one minds that kind of photobombing! 👌

Great shot Lee, how lucky to catch a meteor too.

Thank you both very much. I'm pleased you both like the image. It was fortunate to get the meteor. The foreground could of done with a longer exposure. Still lots to learn about Widefield astrophotography. 

Clear skies
