Hi all. I finally saw the comet this evening - just. It appeared between foreground clouds, and behind background clouds here in Brisbane. I looked at it through 10x50 binoculars, and tried taking a photo by holding a 4mp digital camera up to the binoculars. Unfortunately I didn't hold the camera steady enough for most of the images. The best image (and only suitable image) I cropped and attached. Is it possible to enhance the image to highlight the comet more? I fiddled around quickly in a version of Paint Shop Pro I have (version 5), but don't really know what I am doing. Can anybody recommend any (simple) steps to enhance the comet in the image?

Happy viewing!
Noel
