Thanks Andy, I was really surprised to see the three tails still visible.

Thanks Kevin. The doubled nucleus is a processing artefact - long subs make it hard to precisely align on the smeared out core. I'll reprocess it at some stage.

It sure is an interesting comet. I got quite excited to see the first subs come through with three tails still visible. There isn't much time to capture it, but it's getting higher (and fainter) - at least the moon is out of the way (and it finally cleared the one bloody tree west of the scope a few nights ago).
