Astro: Repost of my comet Holmes image - 1 attachment
Forgot "Astro:" last time.
Nikon D200 at prime focus of F/5 6" Newt. Stack of 50 frames, cropped to 500x500. ISO 1000 at 1/4 sec, manually tracked. Blown up 5x. I found it first in binoculars, then scope, then took pics. Pretty good achievement being in the LA basin with a lot of smoke haze still in the air, massive light pollution, and a nearly full moon. I could barely make out but 3 or 4 stars at 1x.
