It was not easy to see and to shoot this comet from Warsaw. When it was bright ( around 15th of March) it was only 7-10 degrees above the horizon one hour after sunset. Anyway for the documentary purposes I made this photo smile

The star at the left top is Omicron Pisces.
Optics: Karl Zeiss SONNAR 135/3.5 ( 40 years old!)
Nikon D60.

M81-82 intergalactic

Posted By Maciej Kapkowski

Rolando, this is not an INTERGALACTIC dust, you made a fantastic picture of Integrated Flux Nebula - a dust in our ( Milky Way) galaxy. We can see M81 and M 82 through it!
Cheers
Maciej
