This is a stack of 23 images done in DSS it has come out like a star trail not what I thought it would come out like but I kinda like it.

Good work Warren, I like the consept of the stacked result also, gives a good sense of the rotating earth with Lovejoy in our backyard.
Nice collection ! !

Nice one Warren.

This sure is a ripper comet. Can't wait to have a sap at it myself.

Cheers Daniel.
