C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS)

Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS) continues to decorate the sky with a majestic tail that can be easily seen from dark skies. Here, captured with my Nikon D5600 camera and a Nikkor 135mm lens. I used a comet stack (in DeepSkyStacker) and a very subtle processing with Siril and Gimp.

Magnitude: 4.45

Distance: 0.64 AU

Constellation: Ophiuchus

Although it is beginning to move away, the comet still offers a spectacle worthy of admiration and is a perfect reminder of the immensity and beauty of the universe.

Exposure: 7.5 minutes, Iso: 800, f/5.6.
