Acquisition:15x 180s CLS, G139, OS21, Tsensor -15c, 40x darks, 30x flats, 30 dark-flats. Total Integration 45 min.
Equipment:Skywatcher Esprit 100ED, x1 Flattener, EQ6RPro, ZWO ASI1600MM Pro, EFWmini with Skytech CLS-CCD,
Guiding:Skywatcher 9x50 finder with ZWO ASI120MM.
Software:NINA, PHD2, EQMOD.
Processing:DeepSkyStacker, Affinity Photo, Siril, Starnet ++.
Memories:Noticed this chance alignment was available whilst already capturing a narrowband imaging run on the Fish Head nebula. With no RGB filters in my filter wheel decided to try and capture a bonus greyscale image of the comet via CLS-CCD at the end of my run.
