About this image

Mid time of a 35min stack on the comet with galactic friends.  I was experimenting with focal reducers in moonlight and transparency was good enough to get some DSOs. The comet made a nice setting.  The resulting focal length was longer than i had planed at 1640mm,  based on the Astrometrica solution.
