Comet 21P/Giacobini-Zinner taken at Astrofarm in France on Saturday night.
5 subs of 30sec quickly stacked on my laptop.  As usual, H-alpha modified Sony A7S on Tak Epsilon 180ED.
M36 is top right and a few Sharpless objects on the left e.g. Sh2-235



The comet is easily visible in binoculars now.

Looking at this at home on my monitors it appears to have an overall green cast - I need to fix this ...
