Comet McNaught (C/2006 P1) in Microscopium
Hi all,

Went over to Zane Hammond's observatory over at Lake Bathurst with Louie last night and bagged it.

View here.

Warning: file is approximately 675 KB in size.

It was a magnificent site.

As always, comments and critique welcome.

Regards,
Humayun

that's it, I think i'm going to pack up and go home to sulk!!!!

Bloody Marvooolussssss

that has to be the BEST southern hemisphere shot I have seen todate.

In fact I have to say, nothing from the Northern boys either can come near that master piece.

ps, you not going to do a few A3 print and selling them off to fellow forumnites for a good price???
