Weather cleared tonight, so managed a shot of Boattini. So much brighter than a month ago.

This shot is a stack of 3 x 180 sec subs taken with piggybacked Canon 400D at 55mm, ISO 1600, F/4. Hand-guided using slow-motion controls on EQ1 mount, and NexImage through Tasco 4.5" f8 reflector. Stacked in Registax.

Note the carbon star (HIP 53085) above the comet.

Cheers -
