Comet Lovejoy, 25th and 26th december with 10min image

Few shots from last two nights, Hope you like them!

10 mins shot is a stack of 30 seconds shots with the canon nifty fifty - for a $100 lens it produced an ok image.

Grahame.

Terrific images there.
I still havent seen the Comet as the weather here wont clear.
Number 2 is stunning and number 4 the 10 min image shows heaps of detail.
Nice work Grahame

Awesome shots Grahame. Very cool how the tail looks twisted in the last shot.
Looks like you were down around Lakes Rd/Hopeland Rd or Ravenswood way.
I was down there too but in no condition to drive or operate the camera

Beautifully well done, Grahame! I especially like the perspective and foreground in your first two shots, and the last two are just fantastic.
