Saw the comet last night--spectacular from Dubbo and Wongarbon.I was in Dubbo visiting my daughter. We both saw it and my daughter grabbed her camera and took some shots, the images didn't come out well but the comet was magnificent with the naked eye. As it got darker we could see more of the tail. While driving home to Wongarbon I saw just how large the tail of the comet was, the coma had slipped below the horizon ---but the tail----magnificent under the dark skies out here, almost as good as comet Hyakataki. Yesterday was the only cloudless day here for days and as I work rotating shifts--afternoons and nights. I count myself lucky that i've seen it at all.
