Comet C/2011 L4 Pan-Starrs

Comet Pan-Starrs from the evening of the 7 June before the moon rose.

Very faint at around Mag 14.6 or so.

Takahashi FSQ-106ED with reducer operating at f/3.6.

5 x 120 seconds @ -25c, Luminance filter only. SBIG ST2000XM.

This comet is expected to brighten considerably.

Cheers
