Post by yuribeletsky - Comet C/2024 G3 (ATLAS) - A View from an Observatory 😃 I took this image at the ESO Paranal Observatory on January, 19. The comet is setting in the twilight next to one of the auxiliary telescopes (AT). This time, I used a 70mm lens to capture the whole scene. To plan the composition I used @planitphoto . I hope you enjoy the view! Pic of the comet with an enormous tail rising above the crimson horizon. One of the astronomy telescopes at Paranal is in the foreground to the right of the comet.

Astronomer and nightscape photographer Yuri Beletsky today posted yet another gem of an image of comet C/2024 G3 (ATLAS), taken on Jan 19 from the ESO Paranal observatory in the Atacama desert in Chile.
Probably taken using his trusty Canon R6 and a 70 mm lens (mentioned by him).
His images certainly deserve to be featured on NASA APOD.
