Capturing comets

This effect applied to a star stack lets the sky appear populated by a trilion of comets. I decided to apply this effect to the scene to get a different night image of the Blue Lake, in Cervinia.
Another look at the comet Neowise when it came to visit. Taken with our trusty nikon d3100 and our Nikkor lens.

Accepted? Hihi
Finally managed to get out and shoot the comet. One shot for the comet iso 3200 @2.8 25 secs and one for foreground iso 800 @2.8 25 secs
Comet Neowise streaks across the sky in the Badlands of South Dakota!
Not the best image with some cloudiness and haze in the sky, but was pretty successful using just long exposure. Most people who got terrific shots used multiple shots and stacking.
Thanks for comments and Explore while I was away!

One of the early captures of the comet there over this pretty section of Arizona captured while we were traveling from the north rim of the Grand Canyon back to our hotel there at Marble Canyon.
A beautiful sunset was enhanced when light hit a ridge of cloud and set the scene on fire, it reminded me of a comets tail.
Pretty sure its not an airplane, but I really don't know what this is. The tail looks like a comet, but the red has me confused. All the captures of Comet C/2021 Leonard have green in them not red. I did have an astro filter on the camera. Pointed in the SW sky @ 6:37 PM Pacific time.

Comet C/2024 G3 (ATLAS) continues to decorate the evenings of the southern hemisphere. At dusk it shines on the horizon along with the last lights of the setting Sun. In this photograph, taken with a Nikon D5600 camera and a Nikkor 135 mm lens, it looks bright and imposing over a curtain of Eucalyptus. Enjoying the scene with the family has become part of the last hours of the afternoon.

I'm not sure how it is that you can live in one of the sunniest places on earth, and when a comet shows up, we become overcast for more than a week?!
Thanks to all of you who are enjoying fairer skies and have captured outstanding images of Comet NEOWISE!
This was the last morning where I was able to capture it north of Albuquerque. I didn't actually have my bearings, so I was using my 14mm lens to find my quary. It had drifted a bit further from Venus than I was expecting, so the lens was a good choice.
Made from 9 light frames by Starry Landscape Stacker 1.8.0. Algorithm: Mean Min Hor Noise. Keep shooting!
Peace and cheers!
I forgot I had taken this shot of an old Comet down the road from where I use to live. Wonder where it ended up?
A composite image - just had to move the comet over a tad for aesthetic purposes (being I went down to Manukau Harbour to specifically try and get this shot). Auckland New Zealand
Another take on this spetacular comet. A single image capturing a familiar constellation above Chesterton Windmill and the light pollution from Birmingham and Coventry beneath it. Judicious light painting with an LED torch to give a little definition to the windmill.

#Peel
The mighty asteroid Cucumis, a space traveller from the faraway Cucurbitaceae galaxy, is finally about to enter Earth's stratosphere. Will it burn out or will Earth face its deadly impact?
Well, the latter was the case, but Cucumis' impact went unnoticed by 99 percent of all Earthlings. It left, however, a notable mess on my photo table... The theme is "Peel", and what looks like a huge watermelon is a thin strip of cucumber peel. The resemblance doesn't come as a surprise, though, because melons and cucumbers (and also zucchini and pumpkins) all belong to the gourd family.
The idea was to backlight the cucumber peel and make it look like a planet. To achieve that effect, I put the peel directly around the front part of my small LED flashlight but it didn't stay in place. So I used an elastic band and wrapped it around the peel and the flashlight. That did the trick but the results still looked a little boring. So today, I had the idea to use coloured light and make the longer part of the cucumber peel that was wrapped to the side of the small flashlight look like a red-hot comet's tail. Focus stacking yielded the best results in defining the rather soft pattern a cucumber peel has and it also allowed me to better control the transition into blur on the comet's tail.
The diameter of the flashlight's front part is 1,5 cm / 0,59 inches.
HMM, Everyone, and have a nice week ahead!

Comet Panstarrs,

Canon 760D, CLS filter ( city light suppression)

If you look at the comet with your eyes slightly averted left or right, the comet tail pops out a little more. This is a well known method for seeing feint objects in the night sky. Seems to work here for me, let me know if you can see the feint detail.
I took this back in 2007 in the days long before I had a decent digital camera. The only one I had to hand on the night was my 3D or stereo medium format film camera. From memory, this was a 15 second exposure with 100 ISO film. It was taken from my home in Burnie, Tasmania and the illuminated buildings belong to Hellyer College. How I would have loved today's cameras back then!
