McNaught. Saturday Feb 3, 2007. 9:51PM

Trying to make the most of McNaught.
Taken in Strathalbyn South Australia.

I remember buying a film SLR to photograph Halley's and later bought a basic reflector telescope because it really got me interested in all stuff astronomical. (I was about 19 at the time)
I wonder how many young minds McNaught's Comet has inspired and if their futures have been shaped in any way by what really is/was an awesome sight in our skies.

Regards,
Michael

Some other shots I took over the 23/24/25th are in this thread: http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/s...327#post189327

Hi Ken, I just followed the link in your sig to find that you do exactly what I was just alluding to. Well done. The astronomy camps sound like a great idea. Keep it up.

Regards,
Michael
