02/11/2023 - _42A8602.jpg

Super excited to catch a glimpse of Comet C/2022 E3 tonight. It is the fourth comet I've seen and photographed in my lifetime. Despite it being almost directly overhead, and only about 28º F with a RealFeel of 15º F I was able to get a decent shot using my 100mm f/2.8 macro lens.

The bright object is Mars, and the comet is about a quarter of the frame lower left of it with the greenish hue.



Yesterday's photo:

Canon EOS R5
2.5s f/2.8 at 100.0mm iso6400 full exif
