That looks great, Tony, I reckon there is a decent faint tail coming from the 'top' of comet

Hi Tony,

Your image looks great. The histogram shape has LOTS of info in it
and I gave it a few rough tweaks. Others would do far better than
my 2 tries here.
Hope you don't mind.....
A flat would get rid of the vignetting maybe?

Glen has commented in the observation section re length of the tail.

That tail seems to go for ever!
Great wide field, must have a go at that.
