Comet C/2013 V5 (Oukaimeden) August 24

She's really ramping up now. In the mag 8's I think. Still an early morning object just below the Rosette Nebula. This is 20 x 2 minute subs, ED100 F7.2, Pentax K-5. There is a risk of disintegration as she swings by the Sun as it's close to the Bortle limit.
