It's baaaack - Comet McNaught

[middy]

Well technically it's not really back because it never went away. :P

Thought I'd try to bag it again tonight. Mounted the camera on the StarTracker and started snapping away. Unfortunately I only managed to get 9 x 64 sec images before thin cloud rolled in and parked itself just where the comet was. :tasdevil:

Anyway, here is the stack of those 9 images. The comet is the faint fuzzy greenish blob just up and to the left of centre.

It's got things to do, places to go, other "people" to see - nice that it visited with us for a while.:)

Love the green colour.

Maybe if we all close our eyes and wish really hard it might come back to visit us? It might :) Thanks, Middy, it's nice to see it again.

Nice image Middy, I hope it stays long enough for me to get at least one more image with the 12"

Cheers
