Details:
The comet NEOWISE c/2020 F3 observed on July 17th, 2020, at the time of its maximum splendor.
52 consecutive images were taken to obtain a final image with an improvement of the SNR to show the fine structures of the bluish ionic tail and specially the spectacular synchronous bands and the extensions of the dust tail.
The instruments used to achieve the images were simple, a modified Sony A7 S camera (full visible spectrum), with an 85 mm f/1.4 lens. 6-second exposures on a static tripod (no tracking). Afterwards, using software, the sky and the landscape were aligned to obtain the final deep image.
The images were obtained from the small village of Albanyà (Catalonia, Spain) which in 2017 obtained the recognition of IDA Dark Sky Park.
