Comet C/2011 L4 (PANSTARRS) and Andromeda Galaxy- 2013-04-08 21:45 CET

L4 PANSTARRS and M31 (Andromeda galaxy).

 

At this point the comet is moving away from M31 every day. Too bad I couldn't catch it earlier, when it was closer.

 

The faintest stars you can make out on this photo are magnitude 10.

 

50 x 8 sec at ISO 400.

Camera: Sony Alpha DSLR-A200
