Tonight I could see 10 degrees of tail before it it got chopped off by cloud. The attached image is a stack of 5 images, each 8 seconds long using a Canon 350D + Canon 70-200 lens set at 70mm f2.8. I used IRIS's 3 star registration to align the images before combining them. I also a cropped a little so this image measures 12 x 13.5 degrees. By keeping exposures at 8 seconds I could use a tripod to mount the camera.
