Comet 2021 Leonard.

[Mac]

Well it is very dim at the moment, and the haze didnt help this morning.
They are not called faint fuzzies for nothing.

It is visible in a pair of binos, although it should get brighter over the next few weeks.

Left hand side.
Didnt have time to set up my mount so this is straight out of camera.
Nikon D3 120mm f5.6 15 Sec exposure @ 12800 iso, which is why there is some star trailing.



I'll try and get the mount set up over the next two weeks and get some more guided images.

If th esteady stream of APODs* is any guide, this comet has been developing in an interesting manner. Pity it's a bit far south now...
