Quick and dirty processing done in Iris.

It was about one hour from starting the first image to finishing the last image. It looks like there was some comet movement in that time (or maybe it is just my processing).

Nice work , it will be interesting to see how this comet performs, i don't want to get too encouraged but its really hard NOT TO! Keep the images coming! If the brightening trend continues then its more than likely going to reach naked eye mag under dark skies, mag 3.8 is the latest max brightness estimate. Good to see some more people taking on the comet obs, its very encouraging!
I can see this comet is producing a lot of dust, and its about 0.6 AU away from us. Quite close!!!!!

Cheers!
