Thanks Trevor, Scott and Mike! Yeah dark skies really help as the tails are rather faint.

It`s not scooting along like Boatini and other recent ones. In the 4 min sub there is barely any elongation at 900mm. The 10min sub shows the nucleus as twice as long as it`s wide but it`s not very noticable.
cheers Gary
