Comet Imaging Session - February 7, 2023

The sky in the evening is partly clear but with a Full Moon phase :( Since I wasn't able to capture this comet earlier due to mount problems amd bad weather, I use this opportunity to quickly setup my telescope to try to image the departing Comet C/2022 E3 ZTF. It was located a few degrees north of bright star Capella. I use a ZWO ASI294MC Pro camera with Borg 76ED Refractor mounted on a Vixen GPDX mount to capture the comet. Total exposure of 10 minutes was made at unity gain and -5 deg C.
