Last Look at Linear

This was my first look at Comet 252P/Linear and the last until whatever is left of it after the moonlight gets out of the way.

Moonset was 6:02am and twilight started at the exact same time at my location in central Victoria. The darkest sky was around 6:10am:

Canon 6D, Samyang 35mm lens f2.8, 2 mins, ISO800. Tracking on SkyWatcher Star Adventurer. And a little StarSpikes Photoshop help.

Have enjoyed the images from many other folks of this startling comet - strange but very easy naked eye and so big in binoculars.
