  1. these five images are all of comet A6 (lemmon) photographed from October 6 – 24. The first image was photographed in my backyard in Virginia, and the last four were shot in New Mexico, where I traveled to observe this comet under dark skies.

    photographed with a ZWO ASI2600MC camera and a William Optics RedCat 61 telescope (first image) and a Takahashi e-130d telescope (other images).

    Images 2 and 5 are two-panel mosaics to capture as much of the tail as possible. Was a great photographic comet. Hope we get another good one in 2026!
