Comet Boattini C2007/W1 a closer look
Last night I imaged this comet with the 10 inch scope
Used short subs to avoid comet trailign due to its movement.

4x2 mins ISO 1600 1x5 mins ISO800. Hutech LPS filter, Baader MPCC coma corrector, modded 350D, 10 inch f5.6 newtonian. Crisp cold night. Comet has a strong central condensation. Aligned in Iris using this condensation as an alingment "star"
