C/2011 l4 panstarrs

[Astroman]

Comet C/2011 L4 PANSTARRS Very low on the horizon ~5 degrees. 15 x 1m 30s exposures, ISO1600 Canon 400D, 80mm @ ~370mmFL. Tracked on a borrowed LXD55 Mount. Skies - Clear, Transparency - like mud. Wind was gusting between 10-15knots most of the night.

I would like to specially thank Jeff@sa for letting me borrow his LXD55 mount, worked very well all night.

No worries about the mount. Glad to help.
Cheers

Nice one Andrew!

Less than ideal conditions for you, panstarrs will be interesting to follow. It's a different beasty to lemmon,that's for sure.

Cheers,

Justin.

Certainly is, looked like the tail was effected by the wind too...
