Comet ISON and Mars over 24hrs (6th/7th Oct)

Out just east of Warwick camping and the dark sky afforded an opportunity to catch the comet at around 4am on two mornings. Here are two overlaid images, with the background stars aligned, showing the movement of Mars and Comet ISON against the starry background over 24hrs.

Also attached is the view on 6th October by itself, with less processing. The comet looks green here and has a nice little tail.

Canon EOS 600D, 200mm lens.
Thanks for looking,

Tom
