Boxing Day Comet and Animation

I setup this morning at a local lookout next to Somerset Dam.
The 2 photos are the same, one is unprocessed, the other has had contrast and brightness applied.
The link is to an time lapse of Comet Lovejoy rising, and then fading into the dawn sky. It isn't very smooth as I had to re position the camera, and I may have bumped the camera too at one stage.
It was a very stressful morning, I had a couple of wild pigs voice their disapproval of me every time I stepped out of the car. So when I was out with the camera, I was a little jumpy.
