Hi all

I'm just as shocked as you all are - The Unbeliever (aka David Chandler) has made it to Space Weather.

BTW here are my poultry efforts. I am eclipsed by the quality of images presented thus far. in some way my camera was affected by the heat at lostock , and I forgot to take darks and flats etc.... pay the price for the "cheap" thrill of getting the images. Mate what a sight.

Taken with a box brownie on three sticks held together with chewie, and focussed with a kellogs plastic magnifyer. Oh ok it was with a canon 350D, severely heat stressed

What a great night's viewing here in Melbourne, brilliant views of the comet up until 11:15pm. Took over 200 images tonight, one is here 280kb, I'm very happy

All excellent images one and all, im totally amazed .

Houghy - you too have made it to Space Weather - looks like David has linked space weather to his images from IISAC. Which includes you (you famous man you!!)

Dave and I are just teasing each other Baz.
He thinks I'm turning into a chicken.

the bad news is we will be socked in by cloudy aftrernoon for the rest of the week, so keep snapping peoples....

Wow guys & gals, fantastic images by everyone.
It's impossible to reply to each and every one but I really enjoy viewing all of them.

Went through last nights efforts, this one's not briliant but I've Mccaught McNaught together with a pass of the ISS at around 10:09PM Imagine the views from up there.

Great capture Phil !
I wonder if we'll see any photos of the comet from ISS.
I know we have heaps from IIS........
