Thanks Liz for your comments. Nice image there Rob of the new comet, the next few days will be interesting as to if it will survive.

Here is my image of comet Lovejoy from last night 14-3-12. It is 13x4 minute exposures with Astrograph and Astro 40D at ISO 1600. Measured the tail to be just over 1 degree in length. Almost leaving Lepus and will enter Orion in 2 days.
