More PanStarrs and C/2013 US10 Catalina.

More PanStarrs, from 19th and 20th.

Both taken with unmodded caonon1100D, at 250mm and 300mm.
Piggy backed on home made mount.

C/2013 US10 Catalina is from Saturday, It's currently mag 8,3 currently in Pheonix.
It's showing a nice dust tail and the signs of a green coma.
There's also an intriguing faint line running from the comet to the top of the image, probably some sort of artefact from stacking.

Cheers,

Justin.

Beauties Justin! Actually I think the faint line on US10 Catalina is the ion tail which has been showing up on some photos I've seen. It's the next promising comet.
