Comet Tuttle (left), galaxy M33 (and encroaching cloud)

Many have better photos of this unique pairing, as they were much closer over the last couple of days when I've been clouded out.

Canon EOS 20D ,Tamron 90mm f/2.5 SP MF Macro Adaptall
Camera 'piggybacked' on a Celestron C8 telescope. 1 minute exposure at f2.5, ISO 800. Tracked manually due to the failure of the telescope's electric drive! full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto
