I had to wait until about 3:55 a.m. CST (8:55 UT) for the comet to finally clear the wall of my observatory, at which time I noted twilight was beginning. I combined three 30-second exposures obtained at ISO 1600. Although these were color images, I opted to convert them to black and white to darken the sky and bring out the tail. |
