PANSTARRS and LEMMON in twilight

G'day all,

I had a great evening photographing these two comets.

Both photographed with Canon 100-400L @ 400mm F/5.6 on 7D @ 1600ISO.

Wide field shot was 8-15 F/4L fisheye @ 400ISO 13sec on 7D.

Enjoy!

Roger.

Nice work Roger. Where are they in the sky now, low in the west? If it ever stops raining / being cloudy here I may get to see them yet.

Thanks: )The camera is looking more or less West. PANSTARRS is very low in the WSW, LEMMON is higher, in the SW.

Yes ... my BOSS colleagues in Queensland remind me regularly how lucky I am to have clear skies. I tell them it could be the other way around in a week's time, you all on the east have clear skies and we don't .... but I don't think they are believing me anymore ...

Here's hoping for better luck next week for you!

Nice catch of those two visitors Roger. Been away for quite a while but back home for 1 night so will be interesting to see what turns up.

Nice catch Roger!
I haven't seen PANSTARRS yet but I plan to look for it in the coming days if the weather permits.
