Trying to make the most of McNaught.
Taken in Strathalbyn South Australia.
I remember buying a film SLR to photograph Halley's and later bought a basic reflector telescope because it really got me interested in all stuff astronomical. (I was about 19 at the time)
I wonder how many young minds McNaught's Comet has inspired and if their futures have been shaped in any way by what really is/was an awesome sight in our skies.
Regards,
Michael
