Details:
The 46P comet photographed from home on the evening of December 4 in very good sky conditions (dry wind at high altitude, clear sky). Invisible to the naked eye, one could hardly see the 10x50 binoculars as a diffused and very weak object, half the diameter of the Moon. The diameter on the images was much more extensive but without a hint of a tail.
Canon 60Da, 200 mm lens. f / 3.2, sum of 109 shots from 30 seconds to ISO 800 on star-tracker Star Adventurer.
Processing: IRIS, Photoshop CC.
