Thanks all. It's not that bright but it still manages a nice little tail.

Looks like you’re the only one imaging comets.
For a slightly brighter one, look at the Helix 15th June around 11pm, should make a nice photo opportunity.

How long we’re your subs, or is it a long single ? Settings on camera, just asking as I plan on shooting this one, but if it’s cloudy here, it’d be nice to see someone do it.
