About
Last Saturday I was so excited to see a comet. I've been waiting since 1986 (I wasn't able to see the Halley).


No tripod, I did my best to stabilize the camera leaning against a wall. I need to get a good tripod for next comet ;)
I was on a 10th floor, couldn't see anything from the ground.
The city lights hid the magnificent tail I saw on other pictures on the web.

ISO 1600. Neat Image for Noise Reduction and Photoshop por color correction, resizing and a little sharpening.


UPDATE 19/2/2007: I've been honored by the Yokohama Science Center, as they have included this picture in their web site. This photo has also been used in the cover of a local free publication, here in Argentina.

Muchas gracias, me alegro de que te haya gustado. La verdad es que es una suerte haber podido fotografiarlo, aunque no en las mejores condiciones técnicas. Y además es un privilegio haberlo podido ver desde esta ciudad tan luminosa.
Un abrazo!

Wow, perfect catch.
just needed less light with close F-stop to have better focus and lenght in sharpness!

Well done! Nice steady shot for no tripod. The colours in the night sky are great.

Nice! I´d never saw a comet... And your description of how you managed to take this picture is very instigating...

Muy belo! Quiero capturar cometas también... Espero que no haga assassinado la lengua española con mi portuñol... o.o :)

Buenas...
