Panstarrs from Mt Macedon

Hi All,

Went up to Mt Macedon to get a clear Western horizon tonight. Took a scope up to have a visual look at the comet and my DSLR to take some wide field shots.

Cheers
Stuart

The only problem with the location was the temperature. It was 2C when I set up, and the sun was still (barely) up. The temp at home that night was -2.5C, so I reckon it had dropped to freezing when I left Mt Macedon. More summer comets please!!

Cheers
Stuart
