Also, consider using a present mode for long-exposure in order to control it. The best way is to use a camera that has a shutter release cable or has a self-timer, or maybe any sort of remote operation capability so that the camera doesn’t shake or blur as you press the shutter button. A wide-angle lens can also work amazingly as it catches more light.

Experimenting

After you get the correct angle and right spot, discover the comet. Now setting up begins. Firstly, get rid of the auto-focus mode and use manual mode to adjust focal lengths, exposures, and frames. Now let the comet appear in an isolated background and click the picture.
