C/2014 Q1 (PanSTARRS) and Moon July 18 0840UT, 2 x 30 seconds with an ED80 @ F4, cropped.

Not an easy one to process as the Moon was throwing flare all over the place.

My god, great job!

Well done and nicely framed. Going a bit wider field was the way to go tonight. Took the 10" to the sports field down the road but it came in damp and misty and Elise did better with the 5" refractor. That tail sure is long though. Hope the clouds give us a break for another night at least.

Simply breathtaking all the more dissapointed I got clouded out will try to process my pano including Jupiter Venus and Panstarrs

Great image Kevin!
Is this comet visible with binoculars - I tried to see it tonight but I couldn't. Maybe it wasn't dark enough?

Tony.

[cometcatcher (Kevin)]

Thanks all!

The comet should be visible in binoculars, though I guess it depends on sky conditions since it is so low. If there's too much smog it could make it difficult.
