Family stargazing and comet meet nebula

Clear nights at the cabin by the river. A great night with campfire and the starry sky above. The same night comet Jacques met the great nebula IC1396 in the sky, of course far away from each other in space. Also faint Aurora Borealis in the north but a very nice Milkyway in the sky.

A closer look at comet Jacques from Carpe Noctem Observatory, taken with a C11 @1764mm.
You can faintly see a little tail, the comet moved really fast at this focallenght..

Comet Jacques

The little green dot in the sky is comet Jacques. Beautiful in the telescope and easily visible with my Vixen binoculars. At the moment the comet lies beside the Cassiopeia constellation and the photo is taken with a 85mm lens and Canon 6D in my backyard in Vallentuna.

Comet Jacques from Carpe Noctem Observatory

So first session in the observatory after the summer nights. I enjoyed comet Jacques which was really nice through my C11 at 2800mm. The comet is moving really fast towards Cassiopeia, it is impossible to see without optics, a small telescope or great binoculars are needed.
