Got a shot in this morning just before the Moon interferes. It's about mag 6 or so.

Thanks Jakob. Personally I find trails a bit distracting. But here's one for comparison.
Thanks Pete!

Very tidy shot... I like the one without the trails. It's a crisp clear shot. :thumbsup:

Thanks Jase! Yeah I think comets look better "static". Comet moving along with the trails is not so pleasing IMO. Comets moving across the star trails is better but I still think static is best.
