Comet 2012 X1 (LINEAR) 2014 July 04 1400UT. SW ED100 at F7.2, 78 x 1 minutes, Pentax K-5. I agree with the others in that I think she's finally beginning to fade after being fairly steady for ages. Two views, a warp drive trailed and a still version. Magnitude 9 something I think.

Good going to get those captures:thumbsup:

Surprised to see little feed back on solar system objects these days on this forum.

Thanks Chris. I'm sure interest will pick up with a bright comet or other event. Really, Mag 9 comets are nothing to write home about, but I still like em. :)
