Panstarrs & Lemmon's spectacular tail 8" astrograph.

[tilbrook@rbe.ne]

Hi,

Decided to image, with the 8" astrograph, and I'm glad I did!

Comet lemmon's tail is spectacular, showing more disruption to the tail.
I also did a 85mm wide field on the tail, the image is cropped, but shows at least 8 degree's of very wobbly tail.

Only managed one reasonable image of panstarrs with the 8". Lot's of driting cloud low on the horizon, although it may make a good animation as i have plenty of frames.

All images with the canon 1100D.

Cheers,

Justin.

You're Comet Man for sure Justin, nice captures.
What exposure lengths are we talking here? I tried some Panstaars the other night and shot 30 seconds, but the sky was quite dark as well.
Lemmon really is producing a nice display.

Great shots Justin :thumbsup: I was wondering what happened to Lemmon's tail. Saw it last night from south WA and the tail was much dimmer than the previous night.

I wish Panstarrs was a little higher, might be able to get more tail away from twighlight.
