Comet 21P Giacobini-Zinner

An image of Comet 21P Giacobini-Zinner taken on the morning of the 19th September 2018 from Heathcote, Victoria, Australia. A composite that optimises both the comet and the starry background field; 58 mins of comet and 2 mins of starry field - Canon 5D Mk II + 500mm lens + 1.4X converter on a mount tracking the sky (fov ~3x2 degrees).

 

It was so peaceful and grounding standing under the stars.
