About this image

This is a close-in unflitered view at f/10 through my 356 mm SCT taken with a couple of short cloud interruptions in the early hours of 11th January. I've included as much of the full image field of view as was usable after stacking on the moving comet to try to bring out the start of the ion tail from my light polluted skies.
