YIPPEEEE i got a comet - panstars finally 5 March 2013

My goodness me - how the cloud parted i dont know but it stayed away long enough....jumping for joy

Just some happy snaps will process something later - i am just so happy i got to see this

I am certainly not in the class of Hart Groom Cherney et al but i can say they are mine

Well done. What direction in the sky is this comet because when the rain stops up here i might be able to catch it on its next loop. Did I tell you my new camera 60Da has been in the box for 5 weeks now. I think it is time it stopped raining.
