Details:
Yesterday, on 17th October 2024, the Full Moon was the brightest of the whole year. However, many people focused their view on the other part of the sky, where the comet C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS was visible despite the strong moonlight. I used the natural light to capture the comet from a spot close to UNESCO's Spiš Castle in eastern Slovakia. As the castle is so photogenic, especially in the Autumn colors, it offered just perfect composition with the long-tail comet. Now the Moon slowly disappears from the evening sky so the comet could be even more beautiful, especially from places away from light pollution. Canon Ra, Sigma 50mm, f1.6, ISO250, 56x13s, tracked on the comet with Vixen Polarie U, 8 exposures frozen on the ground.
