Deep Comet Lovejoy

Hi all.
I went to Senic Lookout, Newcastle to image the comet rising over the ocean, with Newcastle's light pollution behind me.
I took a long contonious series of images, here is a stack of the best of them, from when the comet was high enough to see, but before too much dawn light washed it out.

43x 6 sec ISO1600 images with 50mm f1.8 lens, EOS600D, fixed tripod mounted.
Full res. version here
Aligned and stacked in Iris software, then finished with Photoshop.
