Anand,
Despite your stated lack of interest in comets, I'm sure we're all grateful you sent to the trouble of creating your wonderful image. Magnificent;y set in the background of that radio telescope that featured in your recent aurora images.

Thanks Joe. Its not that I am anti-comets but with all the wide field shots I had seen the comet was barely visible in the shots, it almost becomes like another star in the sky.

So I felt I had to use some compression from a longer lens to get a more dramatic look but my move shoot move star tracker broke
Initially the plan was to go further back and try at 200mm with my 70-200mm f4 with a star tracker.
In the end had to resort to a 85mm. I guess I could have gone further back and cropped in, the shot is mostly uncropped. But I was stuck in a massive field after a day full of rain, my feet was wet, shoe completely ruined... so I wasn't thinking too much

Sorry for the sob story, you didn't come here for that
Anyway it is what is it now, I will give it another try if I am still around after 80,000 years

At least you'll get to use an A7R mark DCCC!

another boring moon shot
beaver supermoon 2024
had to test the A58 w the Rokkor MD 500mm


and ETX90 OTA (FL=1300mm)


I think the A58's DRO is helping w a 'better' contrast
very impressed w the A58 so far coming from the A700
PP'd from iphone13mini

If there is even small gaps in the clouds, you might be able to see the moon...

Supermoon behind clouds

α1 + Sony FE 5.6-6.3/200-600 G OSS @ 600 mm, f/6.3, 1/160 s, ISO 6400

And I have to tell a story about this photo: I was heading to do grocery shopping, but once I got on the yard, I saw this moon. So back to upstairs get a camera and take photos. After a while I decided I got enough photos and went home and swapped the camera into shopping bag. After walking towards the shopping centre I noticed that perhaps I should have taken look also to the other direction as there was magnificient sunset coloured clouds. I didn't return home to fetch a proper camera to capture these, but in retrospect perhaps I should have done so, since the few mobile phone photos were quite disapointing...
