Comet 88P Howell near Antares, 6 Oct 09
Image from yesterday, got in a short break in the clouds. Comet is the bright greenish blob. The globular cluster at lower left is M4, NGC 6144 (GC) is the faint hazy patch below & a bit to right of Antares (the BRIGHT yellow star), and Al Niyat is the bright white star near the bottom of the frame. Canon 400D, 200mm, 9 x 75 sec.
Also included is a very 'rough' image shot in bright moonlight the night before (5 Oct), 4 x 60 sec.
Both tracked using Petra's SkyView Pro mount - getting very little use with all the cloudy weather here!!!
Cheers -
Rob
