A couple of comets & a galaxy.

Hi,

From last night.

Comet C/2014 Q2 (Lovejoy) and C/2012 K1 PanSTARRS with NGC 55.

Lovejoy looks fantastic, easily eye balled in the 8 x 50 finder.
Spent a bit of time processing to bring out the ion tail.

Panstarrs conveniently placed with NGC 55 one degree apart, another opportunity tonight too.

Cheers,

Justin.
