Comet McNaught (2006/P1) - 16th January 2007
Hi All,
Well if it was not for a work mate who called me for instructions on finding the comet, I would not have gone out I had given up because of the cloud cover. Also i have this mean cold thats going around, cant get rid of the darn thing. Hence i did not go out last night.
Thanks mate you know who you are.
Well happy to report that i finally saw it and then showed it to the missus before calling my mate to instruct him to find it. "find Venus the bright looking star then its three fists south over from Venus" With those instructions I left him and he called me back to say he found it.
So here are my photos the best of.
Can anyone identify what the second star like object is in the first photo, its to the left and down from the comet. Nearest I can make out it could be a star in the Sagittarius constellation but I am not very confident on that.
Shot with Canon A610.
Regards
Fahim
