Comet 168P Hergenrother

Cootamundra, NSW

A shot of this fast moving Comet in the Northern Constellation of Pegusus.

It will be highly unlikely that I will be able to image this comet soon as it is travelling north rather rapidly and will be too low for for my Southern location.

Quite a number of small galaxies are visible in the original version of the shot.
