Details:
Comet Leonard is in outburst and it is easily visible with naked eye (about magn. 3). With a small telescope it reveals a very complex and dynamic tail (both dust and ion). It is a rare beauty of the sky. This image has been taken with a 130 mm Newtonian telescope and and ASI 2600MC camera. I present two versions: one aligned both for the stars and the comet and the second aligned only for the comet to better appreciate the delicate tail.
