Great shots Mike.

I also tried last night, and before the clouds rolled in I got this.

Now, last night I was using the AO7 to guide (on one of those bright stars in your picture) so I could take longer shots. This essentially defeated the purpose (trying to get more tail) as the comet moves too quickly through the starfield. This blurs the tail, which can hardly be seen in my shots :-(

Next trick is to get lots of 30s exposures, guided.

Cheers
Stuart
