Lovejoy on 31 December 2011

I took a chance and imaged comet Lovejoy again this morning after taking a break on the 30th. Boy, has it dimmed! I could just about make it out naked eye and averted vision was needed to see the extend of the tail.

I took lots of images but half was lost since I must have bumped the focus ring at one stage.

This is the first image of the set which I've been able to process to a degree where I'm reasonably happy with it. Still struggling to get the colors right.
