Howdy
Tried for another image of this faint comet this morning. Gee its faint, it took me a while to find it on the finished image, taken under a full moon. 7 x 2 mins ISO 200, with Bert's 300mm F2.8 lens. Not an overly exciting observing prospect this comet, its around Mag 15. If someone could climb onto the 3.9 metre AAT and shove an eyepiece in, it might look ok lol.
Note, I didnt use any filters, not even the IR/UV cut filter as I was trying to get max brightness from any dust the comet might be giving off.
