Details:
There was a weak cold front in the Carpathian Basin on this evening which helped to sweep the clouds away. So there was starry sky at last, but just around the zenith. Fortunately the constellation Auriga stayed at the zenith with the fast moving guest comet C/2012 K5 (Linear). As the humidity was heavy with the unwelcome illumination of the rising Moon, I could take just 21x60 sec frames about the comet with my old Pentacon 4/200 telephoto lens (F/8) and Canon EOS 400D camera (ISO 1600) on an EQ-5 mount. Processing by Iris software.
