OX first light.....NGC 253

This remarkable transit of a Comet ( plus Prancer, Donna, Blitzen and Ruldolph ) was captured

a few days before Christmas 2013.

Astro-Physics AP155, Coronado 90mm H-alpha.

Using the Grey scale below, check your eyes, if Santa is not visible you'll need more Christmas cheer :)
