Comet 168P/Hergenrother-From Canowindra.

Hello 4 of our CWAS members with 5 inch apo and 2 inch Dobsoian.Searched around and locked onto The 168p comet naked eye observation we used 30mm -13mm ethos- 17mm Badder- 24mm panoptic eyepieces for our observations.I wreckon meybe Mag 8 or 9. We could see the head and coma - and a small tail - Tony- Hell as well Added Digital sky Survey image shows the Star Field centered around the Comet 168p/Herg. you can see faint galaxies in the 60x60 arc minute FOV.Naturally the Comet dose not show in this old image - Tony
