Got this one near the end of last week when the comet was very visible.
There was also a convenient amount of satellite traffic and a meteor shower… Not sure exactly which of those is sharing the frame with the comet here.
Tamron 70-300mm (at 300mm), and this one may have been edited in dt 4.6, unless this is my bad Snapseed edit.

Taken today at 150mm (300mm FF equivalent) on my 14-150mm superzoom. It’s quite soft at the long end, but this beautiful bird would have been just a dot with my usual standard zoom. That’s the beauty of a superzoom: you’re taking wide-angle landscape shots and then suddenly you see some wildlife that needs a telephoto.

I managed to get the moon as well, because it’s just… Well… There.
I had to wait quite a while for it to come up over this hill, but managed to get a series of shots.
I edited this early this morning in dt 4.6, heavy crop… I believe this was perhaps with the 50-200mm at nearly 200mm.

This has been a true challenge for me; I typically shoot 24-35 mm (FF equiv), and sometimes 50 mm.
Here is a photo from Santa Fe, NM. Shot at 50 mm (100 FF eq.), f/8, 1 s, at 200 ISO.
