2004 was a great year for comets. I observed more bright comets that year than any other. Not too far away from T7 Linear was Q4 Neat. What's the chances of two naked eye comets at the same time? Very difficult tail visually with this comet though.

Line1 frame1 April 10 4" refractor. Frame2 April 21 4" refractor. Frame3 May 9 200mm lens I think.

Line2 frame1 May10 135mm f2.5 lens. Frame2 a close up with a 6 inch f6 Newtonian. Frame3 May 11 200mm lens.

Line3 frame1 May16 135mm lens. Frame2 May 17 135mm lens. Frame 3 May 16 50mm lens with the Beehive cluster.

And a full frame colour pic on Fuji 800 with a 4 inch f6 refractor.
