Hi,

This is a single 6 minute sub at iso 800 through the 8" astrograph.
I guided on comet with PHD, so the stars are trailed.
Nice group of faint galaxies upper left.

Cheers,

Justin.

Thanks Rusty!



Thanks Ray!

Can't remember any other comet with such a changable tail. There's been two disconnections now and maybe more to come.



Thanks Laurie!



Thanks Ken!



Thanks David!

To tell the truth, don't Know what the PHD means. Anyway it's the guide software for the orion camera on my 50mm guide scope, called PHD guide.

Cheers,

Justin.

PHD means "Push Here Dummy" and nope that not a joke that's what it really means.

Thanks Tony!



Thanks Trevor!

I've tried the ED 80 on Lemmon but the 8" astrograph works better for the tail.



Thanks Bob!



Well, that seems appropriate!



Thanks Rolf!

Can't wait to see another Lemmon image from your setup.



Thanks Deeno!



Thanks Marc!

Ah! that brings back fond memories. me with hair. Grvity hasa taken over and it's migrating south unfortunately.:(



Thanks Andrew!



Thanks Mike!



Thanks Stuart!



Thanks Matt!

This is really a once in a life time opportunity, doubt I'll see a comet like this again. At least tail wise.



Thanks David!
Yes lots of practise, and I'll probably forget how to do it all.



Thanks Carlos!



Thanks Pete!

Cheers,

Justin.
