Details:
Image of 46P composed of sequentially made R/G/B-images to one RGB-image.
Due to the motion of the comet the coma is elongated over the integration-time of - in total - 30 min. If compared with the L-channel (mono) image, you will realize the elongation, even if on the mono image the coma has an elongation itself due to long-time exposure.
Color image:
Each channel (R/G/B) 600s
Mono image:
L-channel 600s, 2x binning
