Hi All,
Cannot believe just how much the comet has faded since Dec 24th, the Tail has also clearly grown longer. I have not seen any info on the orbit of the comet but it does seem to be inclined considerably to the plane of the ecliptic. Wonder if it is infact a parabola.
Was setup out near our local Airport by 2:30am local and imaged through to 4:30am local. Have 38 45 sec exposures at 24mm F4 and ISO 1600.
Have posted 7 of my images covering the overall session along with a link to an animation of all 38 images NOTE: the animation is 9.4 Mb.

I can see a faster L series Lens coming my way, I used the noise reduction within the 450D but still there is still a fair amount of noise in these.
Thanks for looking.
Regards
Trevor
