The Great Christmas Comet!

[jjjnettie]

:) Finally a break in the clouds.
I put it down to the chanting I've been doing these past couple of days. And more intensely last night. LO

Taken with the Canon Stock 18-55 @18mm
1 minute F4 iso1600

Really glad I decided to head out of town. When I drove back through at 4am, the roads were slick with water. Looks like it had been raining the entire time I was away.

Nice work! Good detail in those.

I drove out this morning too but my pics weren't up to much as the H2 is not good at high ISOs. I wanted to try for dawnlight shots but a bank of clouds rose with and eventually overtook the comet. I'll drive south again in the morning.

Top effort there Jeanette, a bit of chanting certainly cant hurt.

Very well done.

It must be your turn to see it now. Its cloudy here for the next few days.
Can do with the sleep in though.
Cheers and Merry Christmas.

Thanks for all the chanting, folks. :thumbsup: I had a lovely view of the comet from Mona Vale beach early this morning. :) Took photos, won't publish - too noisy, too insensitive, too little aperture in the lens I chose :sadeyes:
