Komet C/2020 F3 Neowise

Post by oreoluna »

Hello everybody.
In the early morning hours, more precisely shortly before four o'clock CEST, I was able to image the comet quite well after experimenting a little.

Image

Photo tripod with Nikon D800e, Nikkor-H Auto f4.5 300mm telephoto lens from the 1960s.

Best regards from Switzerland and from all sides CS, Jozef

Jozef this is very impressive and great use of the older lens there is nothing like good glass.
Cheers Derek

Hi,

Very good and interesting is the colour. I have a friend in Mexico who has taken some images too and the colours are the same as yours.

More interesting is that yelloish colour as normally, as far as I know, comets are green ... ¿?

Very nicely captured, Jozef.

Rainer, the color can vary a bit depending on the chemical composition of the comet (or technically the coma, since that's what we're looking at) and its position relative to the sun (degree of ionization).

Superb image Jozef :hamster:

I always get red in the tail of my comet pictures, every time! It is nice to see a few others also get red.
