I had a few issues with equipment at the Queensland Astrofest this year, but I managed to sort a few of them out by the end and captured this comet in the night of 29/30.
Fairly happy with the result, but I'm not sure of the colouring. The bright star above is Enif, south is up (of course ).
Cheers
Tony

Hmmm... Not at home right now, but I think there were 8 subs x 300 sec, iso 1600, Modded Canon 450D, 110 mm Magrez. Stacked in Deep Sky Stacker comet mode, darks no flats.
Thanks Jeanette and Dave,
Here is another from the 27th/28th. iso 1600, 300 sec x 14 frames (about 2 1/2 hours of motion). Stacked in DSS comet mode, ICNR obviously no flats. I've got a bit more detail of the tail here so I've included an inverse view.
