Melbourne Comet c/2014 E2 Jacques

[algwat (Alan)]

Got a good break last night. The afternoon southerly breezes slowed to still air. A cool and clear night with good seeing. So popped out the ED80mm and 450d Dslr on the eq6. Alignment was good for 30 sec images stacks of 10 images.

Got C/3014 E2 Jacques and a few of the old fave's.

images at this blog near the end....

sky was clear early in the evening, got this 10x30 sec sum of the comet.
Trying again this evening if clouds don't roll in from the west.
