Yup another Swan :)
Here's my attempt on Sunday morning - each image was made up of 2 mins of 11 second subs on my 14" F2 (hyperstar) Meade using a ZWO ASI174MM Cool.
The tail extends about 2 1/2 degrees in the image.
Forgive the dodgy stitching, I still haven't bothered to take any flats, so a little 'dodging' was in order to help blend them :rolleyes:
And a great one too.
Well captured and executed! The tail just keeps on going.

How far does the Tail go ( extend ) on a Comet like this.
Light Years ... or Millions of Miles .... Hundreds of Millions ... ????

Not light years, Col, tho a few hundred million miles are more likely, Comet and tail is all bound to the inner solar system, basically with in the Mars orbit do tails of this nature form :thumbsup:

Thanks, and glad you like it. I had a very short window of opportunity from it sticking it's nose above the trees and daybreak - fortunately I grabbed enough data to put something together.
