Better late than never. For the last two months I've been digging out my lawn to lower it and so prevent a repeat of our New Year's Eve hail and flood.
That night I had hail and water lapping all around the doors and the ground-level windows of my house. Since then I've been using all my spare time to dig a slope into the lawn for drainage. The house is pretty much flood-proofed now, but it's tough work digging through hard clay and stone. I've got a few more weeks to go and then I'll be able to take a new pic or two with the ED80 using my new William's Optics x0.8 focal reducer and field flattener...
I've decided that comets are bad omens.

but.... maybe it was buying the WO reducer that caused that massive hailstorm.
For a couple of nights late January I stopped digging to take some pics of the McNaughty Comet, and I'm glad I did. It's only recently that I've had some time to process them.
Here's one that I like. It shows McNaught over the Tuggeranong valley where I live with the Brindabella mountains lying in the distance (lit by moonlight and the glow of the city lights).
Lens: Canon 50mm f/1.8 (@f2.2) and UHC-S filter
Camera: Canon 350D (unmod) ISO1600
Exposure: 16 x 30 secs (for sky and comet) 1x30secs for the city.
The land is a single sub and the sky is 16x30sec subs. The land is the reference frame from the stack which made alignment very simple and precise. The dark edge of the mountains also made stitching much easier.
