About this image

This is a stack of ten 180second colour images of 29P. At the moment the comet is at a point in its orbit when it barely seems to move against background stars, enabling the opportunity to stack a number of exposures without blurring the image of the comet against the stars. I've deliberately left the image unfiltered and without any flats or darks.
