Hi all, I finally got some good clear skies for imaging tonight and while taking my darks my Star Atlas Pro indicated that I was almost pointing at one of Rob McNaught's discovery's C/2006 Q1 listed at mag 9.0.
I've never imaged a comet this faint before so I thought I'd have a shot at it.
This image was taken through the LX200R (ACF) with the DSI II Pro and a f/3.3 focal reducer in Alt/Az mode.
Images were 20 x 30 second subs for a total of 10 minutes and slight processing of the levels was done to bring it out a bit more.
It the fuzzy spot in the middle.
Cheers
