C/2012 X1 LINEAR fading in Indus

SPX350 F4.5, ST10XME, Astrodon filters. 29th and 30th Aug 2014.

It has been windy and breezy all season but I managed an image of the comet next to a galaxy NGC7151 but I kept loosing the guidestar owing to breeze so could only manage 17x20sec subs in Luminance Binnedx2 to avoid the obvious movement.

Next day I managed colour LRGB 10x1min each Binnedx2, the comet must be near 11th mag now.

Thanks, John.
