Comet C/2013 A1 (Siding Spring) 27-07-2013

Here you go Kevin!

Comet C/2013 A1 (Siding Spring) on Sunday morning.

What a mongrel of thing to process!!

Had all sorts of problems getting DSS to stack on comet with no star trailing.

Pretty nifty field amongst the galaxies of Fornax, very close NGC 1316 Tuesday morning.

The antitail is quite evident in the cropped image, igrnore the blue spike in the wide field, processing artefact.
Don't think it's mag 9.7 more like 10.7

Cheers,

Justin.
