Heres a pic i took of 8P/ Tuttle last night, i had to image quickly because of encroaching clouds.
Single image, 2 min exp @ f/6.3 through 8" SCT, manually guided (poorly but i did my best under the circumstances! Lack of guide stars in radial guider), using Canon 400D @ ISO 1600, adjusted midtones and contrast only.
Taken about 11:30pm on the 7th.
I noticed what looks like a satellite trail from a tumbling sat going through the middle of the frame!
