Comet 217P Linear & Orion Nebula - Image Opportunity

Hi all,
I know Rob_K has put a thread on this somewhere but 217P Linear is not far away from a wide angle opportunity to image next to the Orion nebula complex (Orion Sword).

217P Linear is still about 10th mag but showing a nice 10' long dusty tail, over the next few nights it'll be worth a try!

jjjnettie if you're reading this the GStar WILL be able to pick up this comet, depending on your limiting magnitude!

Cheers!
