I ventured to the edge of the City on the promise of a cloudless sky- it was again cloudy before dark but I managed a few images & videos from 8.15pm. I was a bit closer to trees than I had planned, as I had to guesstimate my position in daylight, however it makes for a good video!

This is composed of 10s subs at f/2.4 135mm cut down (19 mins actual duration) to get under 25MB.

Very cool Gary, I see you have utilised Astro bin for Vid upload, looks great and can notice A3 moving against the backdrop of stars tooo , Speedy bugga

Hi Bob, yes thanks, I used PIPP to turn the ser file into avi (with the lossless compression option selected so its <25MB for astrobin which had been the issue). The first video I did when the comet was in the east didnt have any stars in it (dawn) so it was definitely nice to see the difference in motion in this west/twilight video.
