2.2 day old Moon - no comet!

Hi

Well, after yet another unsuccessful (7th) attempt to take a few wide angle photos of the comet, we were left with a gorgeous 2.2 day old Moon.

We chased a clear patch of skies out to Warrill View, some 70kms SW of Brisbane and set up at the Cunningham Lookout. By 6:30pm the skies had mostly cleared, except for a dark patch of clouds……yes, you’ve guessed it……just where the comet was estimated to be.

Oh well, there’s always the next one…

Cheers

Dennis
