I managed to get this shot of C/2012 F6 Lemmon tonight at around 10pm. I only had my 5DmkII and a normal tripod so this was 60x6sec @ISO6400 + 40 darks with my 24-105L @105mm. Stacked in DSS, processed in Lightroom, this is a 1:1 crop.
Pretty pleased with the result but I wish I had my scope/mount for this one.

Nice one Hugh :thumbsup: I took some tonight also but had to keep dodging those rapid flying low clouds!

Great effort Hugh!
It's still nice and bright.
Nothing but clouds here.

Keep the images coming. :)
I can't see the clouds for the rain here.

Thanks guys! :)
I'll be in the northern hemisphere for all of February so unless the weather clears a bit this week that's the best shot I'll get of comet Lemmon. Still kicking myself I wasn't able to get out with the scope last night but the clear weather caught me by surprise.
