Comet C/2021 A1 (Leonard) ... 31st Dec 2021

This is my attempt to process the 2021 December 31st One Click set of the Comet.
I found it very tricky to process the LRGB files as they were so very few and normal image integration in PixInsight would not cope with removing satellite trails ! I actually only used the RGB files as the Lum's didn't seem to add much to the final image.
