C/2013 A1 Siding Spring 22 Sept

[peeb61]

Hi All,

My feeble attempt at imaging C/2013 A1 Siding Spring.
Seen some really great images here and it sort of inspired me to have a go.
Taken last night 22 Sept 2014.


Comet is estimated at mag 9.9?


This is a stack of 11 images, 10x 1 minute and 10sec and 1x 2 minutes.
The bright star is theta Arae.


Thanks for looking.

Great shot Paul. I don't think this comet was ever easy.

Thanks Al, it is getting a bit on the dim side but still do-able at this stage and hard to bring out any detail.



Yes Kevin you are right it's a tough one alright but a good challenge.
