Summary[edit]

Description
English: Here's another comet shot to fill your feeds 😆. I had to make one more attempt at C/2020 F3 NEOWISE before it really starts to fade and depart for the outer reaches of our solar system. Here's NEOWISE from #shenandoahnationalpark on the morning of July 12th.

I was thrilled that I was able to capture both the bright dust tail and dimmer ion tail (bluish) with longer exposures and more shots from some dark skies. This shot was captured from the top of Blackrock Summit in Shenandoah NP looking to the east , with the light dome of Harrisonburg, VA lighting up the lower left corner of the shot.

The last comet I observed with the naked eye was Hyakutake in 1996 with my Dad so NEOWISE has been a nice and reminiscent surprise.I hope you enjoy the shot and get a chance to see this beautiful comet before it dims as it won't return for almost 7,000 years!

Specs: 25x30" tracked sky shots, 30 darks, 30 flats. Merged with 60 second nontracked foreground shot. Canon 6D, Samyang 135mm @F2.8, ISO800 for all shots. Stacked in Sequator, processed in Photoshop and lightroom, gradient removal in Startools.
