Details:
As the comet slowly moves in the Andromeda constellation, a beautiful composition with galaxies M31 (Andromeda Galaxy), M32, M110 and M33 (Triangulum Galaxy) appears now and upcoming nights in the evening sky. Despite very unpredictable clouds, I made it happen to capture the current “Andromeda family portrait”) with the comet 12P/Pons-Brooks and bright star Mirach, accompanied by the mentioned galaxies. For better orientation, check also the annotated version.
Used Canon Ra, Tamron 70-200mm (70mm), f2.8, ISO 3200, Optolong L-Pro, Vixen Polarie U. Panorama of 2 segments, each 17x30s. Captured from a field near Bijasovce, Slovakia. Unfortunately, lots of clouds and haze during the photography made the result not as clean as I wanted to have.
