Details:
After most of August so far being too cloudy for me to spot and image Comet NEOWISE, I was finally able to briefly do so tonight at 21:38 UTC/GMT. As expected it was noticeably fainter, though it was still visible in my 8-24 X 50 binoculars.
Taken with a Nikon D3300 (DX (APS-C) format DSLR) and a Sigma 70-300 mm F4-5.6 DG Macro lens with the settings being: 4 sec, f/4.2, ISO 3200, focal length: 135 mm (35 mm (full-frame) equivalent: 202 mm), exposure compensation: +5. Processed and cropped through/with Photoscape X.
