Awesome...I love the way a green "Bowshock" shows up so well. It really imparts a sense of movement to the image.

Great Shot! looks like the mirrorless Sony NEX5N is going to have a great impact on wide field shots!

Well done Alex. Your shot reminds me of the naked-eye view of Haykutake all those years ago. The big green head, the twisting tail and the spikes coming off the coma. If only Lemmon was 10 times closer! your shot makes that happen. Many thanks,

Oh wow was my response. That has such a depth to it, its like the comet is just cruising by as you would down a highway with a building in the distance.
