These are some of the images i took last night, the close-up photo's were taken through my 10" dob afocally using a 40mm plossl eyepiece and Canon 400D, 2 second exposures @ ISO 1600.....the lighter one was taken lower down on the horizon and i had to brighten the image a little.
The wider angle shots show my Hilux and the 10" dob set up, the comet is.....if you imagine the triangle of stars above the scope its the bottom right "star".
These images were taken at 400 ISO and are 8 seconds each, slightly adjusted for brightness.

All pics taken from Walcha Aerodrome @ around 1 am, 27/10/07.

Cheers!
