Pentax 75 SDHF with Canon 60Da at prime focus. ISO3200. On Astrotrac. Fourteen one minute subs stacked in Nebulosity with minor processing in Nebulosity and iPhoto. No cropping. Full frame, with a diagonal of 3.1ยบ, shown. No darks, biases, flats. Just a simple image, warts and all, to show how tiny and dim inbound Comet ISON is presently.

Great shot as it shows true relative brightness with surrounding starfield. Keep up the great work.
