C/2007 N1 - Comet Lulin

Osieck

Taken on an exceptionally nice night of 28 Feb / 1 Mar 2009 - the first imaging night after a couple of months for central Poland. Crisp night, +5C during the day and -6C during the night. Some delicate fog but nice views anyway. An imaging trip together with Dominik Wos. Our imaging equipment did not cooperate that night - poor preparations resulted in missing cables, power problems, focusing problems etc. My 7Ah battery died after 3 hours, fortunately I was able to connect to Dominik's 100Ah marine using some spare cables found in the car.

This is the first images - basically from the small image taken with my Canon - no time yet to process or stack any RAWs.

Canon EOS 40D ,Canon 200mm EF f/2.8 L @ f/4.5,Takahashi P2Z mount
2 min @ ISO 400 unguided, processed quickly with Photoshop Elements 2.0 for quick posting full exif
