Hi,

Thanks for the comments.

I think there is a possibility to get one more image tonight. I'm going to reduce exposure time to 150 to 180 sec per frame to reduce noise, and take 10 frames instead of 6. The other problem is it is quite hot which is compounding the noise problem.

Really can't really go much longer because the tail is so faint and it moves nearly 2 arcminutes in that time spreading out the available light to capture from the tail.

This is of course if the thundery stuff clears.

Thanks,

Justin.
