Comet Lovejoy 27-1-12 at 160 mm F/L.

Hi,

Here's my images for the 27th.

I concentrated on the head of the comet at 160mm F/L.
I went for ISO 6400, so the images are noisy, but I'm quite happy with the result. There seems to be a central bightening extending from the head of the comet.

The bright star is Alpha Cae.

Camera Canoon 1100D.

Lens 75 to 300 zoom at 160mm F/5 ISO 6200
2 x 120 sec exp plus dark frames
Processed in DSS and Photoshop.

Cheers,

Justin.
