Comet C 2023 3A Tsuchinshan Atlas
I'm amazed the camera can see it from the city
Needs a lot of clarity during edition

Oh, Armando, I envy you!  The towers on the bottom right and the dome on the bottom left complete the si-fi atmosphere of the entire image with the meteor!

Which focal length did you use for the frame?

Thanks Akira

I brought the 55-200 zoom on the x-t3, took a series of wideish images as the comet is hard to see in the unprocessed images, this one was at 82mm

The image is a bit blurry, conditions were a bit windy and the head of the tripod was loose and since it was still dark I couldn't quite figure out what was going on

(I always liked the output of the D600/610.  Sold the D600  in the past but found now a nearly new D610 with very low shuttercount at a very low price)

D610  AF-D  50/1.4

Well done - as other I envy you your low latitude position. Around here it would appear only 1/2 h before sunrise now according to Stellarium when it is already too much daylight. However I have hopes for mid-October when it will move further north away from the sun and have become an evening comet.

BTW, the aurora forecasts for this weekend (up to kp7) may indicate activity also at latitudes not normally experiencing it.

Fresh air

confusingly magic

Yes, I'd echo that about Karl's image too

But i think this one tops all your others Karl

I love to ride this fixie

I'm going to take a chance that Frank didnt mean what Fons and Alaun thought....
....and guess that this "fixie" is a fixed-gear bike
(no visible gear change or cable on the handlebars, other than the 2 brake cables)

If so, hats-off to you sir.
I've never ridden one and think my legs and brain would need several attempts to stay on something where you can't free-wheel, but your legs are always moving!

If I've made a linguistic mistake, i apologise to all concerned
