Comet Lulin 27th Feb

[Liz]

Very happy to see some stars at 0200ish this am - comet is a stunning sight in binoc.

1st pic with 450D 50 mm lens at 10 sec - happy to see the tail in this little shot.

Took 2nd with 450D 30 sec at ISO 1600, at 17mm.

Glad to see I wasn't the only one up at that hour this morning!
Nice captures too, concidering the short exposure time that you had to use.

Well done Liz,
I am sure your wide field image will be of great help to many on IIS to help find Lulin.

Thanks guys for comments, hopefully it will stay viewable for awhile yet, so others can check it out before Lulin leaves us.
Pretty near to Regulus tonight should make it pretty easy to view.
