St Hubert and the Comet

I had discussed shooting here with a couple of other photographers and so after a long cloudless day I felt somewhat compelled to get out and try another comet shot.

This time I waited until after dark so there was no hanging around waiting for stars to appear.

I marched down the field and set up, aiming for a 'step back and zoom in' shot to try and make the comet larger in the frame. I took loads of images, bracketed to get the church nice and clear.

Once I had my shot I packed up and headed home but as I walked past St Hubert's I realised that this was my shot.

So I set up again and started over.

 

As it happens the bracketing wasn't used and so this is a single image processed through Lightroom.

It was 'another' of those moments where the first or last shot is your the best.
