    I made the most of the clear night last night with a bit of landscape-astro - the Milky Way and comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS) still very much visible just above the horizon.
    There are hints of the aurora in pink against the right edge of the frame and some slightly greenish air-glow around the cloud layer as well.

    Prints, cards etc: shiny.photo/photo/Milky-Way-78

  6. Gisterenavond toch nog #comet2023a3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS gezien. De komeet is genoemd naar het 紫金山 observatorium waar de komeet ontdekt is. Chinese pinyin spelling is Zijinshan. Geen idee waarom die ouderwetse spelling gebruikt wordt. Verwarrend is het wel. Twaalf jaar geleden was ik op 紫金山. Hieronder twee fotos van de mooiste en minder bekende attracties van Nanjing.

  10. The #comet is still there, but it's much fainter: I had to work to find it with averted vision (it was still a pretty sight in binoculars).

    The coma tonight is right next to a star of just slightly fainter magnitude (Stellarium says it's HD 156539, magnitude 6.86) which makes for an interesting binocular comparison.

  15. Niespodzianka! ☄
    Kometa C/2023 A3 jest jeszcze do ustrzelenia. ;-) Nawet w mieście. Oczywiście już nie gołym okiem.

    Dziś spróbowałem obiektywem 300 mm i…
    1) zapomniałem, żeby skrócić czas naświetlania, więc jest rozjechane
    2) dodatkowo coś ciężko mi było ustawić ostrość,

    ale coś tam widać.

    W pewnym momencie z myśliwego (polującego na kometę) stałem się ofiarą (krwiożerczych komarów). 🤦‍♂️

  20. Cloudy this evening, but here's my shot of Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS) last night ☄️

    It's a 9 min stack of 5 sec images with my DSLR+85mm lens on a tripod, unguided, so the stars are slightly trailed 🤷‍♂️

    I've removed a gradient due to light pollution over Mannheim, but there some residuals as I've kept the sky bright to trace the tail extending 10º towards β Oph & the IC4665 cluster at top-left & see the faint anti-tail below 👍

  25. Ce soir, Tsuchinshan-ATLAS jouait à compléter un rectangle dans la constellation Ophiuchus (ou Serpentaire). Ci-jointes (citées par ordre inverse) : une photographie sombre, sa version rehaussé en luminosité et enfin une dernière version annotée.

    C/2023 A3
    Magnitude : 4,80 (donnée SkEye)
    Exposition 60 s, 200 iso, DC-LX100M2.

    Étoiles nommées : Rasalhague (α Oph), Cebalrai (β Oph), κ Oph

  26. A clear night over the Odenwald for once, so grabbed the chance to get perhaps a final glimpse of Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS).

    It’s still there, but faint, & even in the absence of last week’s moonlight, the light pollution over Mannheim was enough to make it invisible naked-eye.

    But I got some DSLR shots which’ll be better than the IPhone’s funky night mode algorithm. I mean, it’s amazing that it works, but it ain’t pretty.

  41. Went out to the Muir Beach Overlook on Saturday night to watch the sunset and see comet A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS. I was surprised that a spot this close to the city had such nice dark skies, and by about 8 PM we were even able to see some glow of the milky way!
