Details:
Universe uses to send as Christmas gifts; find here the good-looking Comet Lovejoy; Comet Finlay passing close to Mars and a brilliant Supernova at Galaxy NGC 4666. Let me tell you that the glow of Mars was hiding the faint comet at all; this is because I had to bring Mars out of the star field, so the comet stayed far away the center of the picture, and only a Mars spike remained in the photo; regarding the supernova, it is more brilliant than the galaxy center itself, guess it was not necessary to mark it, was it? I still remember the great Comet Lovejoy of 2011 Christmas; dear Terry: another one for the next Christmas please!! jajaja! Details: exposure of 51.98; 17.51 and 27.12 minutes with newtonian 8 inches SW; Neq6 SW mount and Meade DSI pro III camera at prime focus from urban Sky.
