Heres the pics as promised.
The wide angle was piggybacked on my Celestron Ultima 8", with the Canon @ 55mm f/5.6 for 7.5 mins, slightly adjusted midtones and contrast. ISO 400

The other pic is prime focus shot @ f/6.3 using same camera and scope.
Exposure was 5 mins (due to gaps in clouds), slightly adjusted again. ISO was 1600

I couldn't believe i'd ever see a comet that filled my 8" @ f/6.3, i think i may need a widefield scope! lol
