Details:
141P/Machholz, 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko and C/2013 X1(PANSTARRS). 200% pixel size each. C/2013 X1 of this day overlapped with a faint star, so I added a-day-old image too. As you know, all these comets are important, but a little bit too small for my shooting system. I added the same scale image of C/2015 F4 (Jacques) for your reference on the right side.
Common Data: EF300mmF2.8L USM, CanonEOS6D, 12800 ISO, FOV: 15 x 15 (arc minutes), North: upper
