March 14, 2009 Port Mouton, Nova Scotia.
Celestron CG5 Mount, Canon XSi, 83 Schmidt–Cassegrain, Sky-Watcher 80-mm ED and Orion Starshooter with PhD for guiding.
30 120-second raw images and 11 darks, ISO 1600
Stacked using Deep Sky Stacker, processed in Images Plus by applying a stretch in digital development, Gaussian blur, star reduction.
This is one of several comets I have photographed. I chose this one because of the lovely star patterns in the upper right. I have attempted to stack this image so that the comet nucleus remains in place using Deep Sky Stacker but this process leaves dark streaks behind the stars.
