Comet C/2012 X1 (LINEAR) June 7

Or June 6 UT, depending on time zone.

My Skywatcher ED100 refractor with 0.8X Orion focal reducer seems to be a good match for comets. DSS picks up the nucleus better with it than the 6" Newt. Cloudy now. The comets, they bring cloud and rain me thinks.

SW ED100 @ F7.2, 69 x 30 second subs, Pentax K-x.
