Hi all,

Clouds finally lifted around Brisbane, and work is not calling. I thought I'd visit a friend outside of Beaudesert tonight despite the Moon for a chance to see the comet again in dark (that is no city lights) skies. It is still pretty hazy and the comet was only just barely visible unaided, barely 2 deg tail. The 400D draged it out of the muck here. 2 images stacked, applied Photo Filter Cooling filter 82, and resized in Photoshop CS. 30s, f5.6, iso 1600, fl75mm.
