ISON in less than 2 minutes Nov 3

I wasn't going to bother posting since I barely got a 2 minute hole in the clouds. Stupid clouds. Come sunrise and they all cleared out! Not fair.

Two frames stacked, one 62 seconds, one 50 seconds at ISO 1600, SW 120mm F5 refractor, Pentax K-x, Baader Semi-APO filter.

As the comet heads south it will move into a bank of trees so doesn't look like I will ever get a good shot of this thing.
