Thanks very much David.

Cheers Larry. I have 23 exposures of this I am stacking to see if it improves it much. The D800 files are so large DSS crashed each time. So I've resized them all and having another go.

I'm hoping to do a similar shot (timelapse) around the 14th, 15th when it's near SMC and 47 Tuc. I'm planning to use a 6D at iso6400 and 100mm at f/2.8, 10 secs. I'll have to stack 4 or 5 of those to get close to your image. Hopefully it keeps getting brighter. Amazing little comet.

Thanks Colin. I did a time lapse as well. Its ready to post but that last step of converting it to a video file is failing. I made the time lapse shorter and perhaps it'll go this time. I think I am needing a more powerful computer soon. It looks quite good with some clouds moving past and it slowly drifts down towards the horizon whilst spinning around the SCP.

Yes near 47 Tuc would be amazing. That will be a great imaging target. Hopefully the weather is clear then. It seemed about 15% brighter the last night I imaged it. The tail was easier to see.

Greg.
