Hi Everyone,

What an amazing view, couldn't resist getting some shots.

Taken with Canon 550D with EF 15-85mm lens at f/3.5 at 2'' iso 1600 and one shot at iso 6400 to show extent of tail although quite noisy.

Thanks for viewing

Even caught the reflection in the lake...

Nice. #3 has a very cool symmetry. Reflection of the comet is good too.

Thanks Guys

,

Its a shame it has already drifted north. I suppose its only fair the northerners get a view too.

Cheers

Love it ! .... Takes me back to IIS Astrocamp and Comet Mcnaught.
It still amazes me how little attention wonderful comets such as this get in the Media. Almost none of the "Public" I speak to know about this.

Thanks Ian,

A lot of people ask me how I know that the comet is going to be there and where to look,
I reply with simply saying internet.

Thanks Ron,

Someone must of bought some serious observatory up your way. I was lucky had the one day with little bit of cloud.

Cheers
