C/2014 Q2 (Lovejoy) on Boxing Day

The tail has broadened a lot, with many streamers, since my last image, seven days earlier, but it remains faint. This time I used 30x60sec exposures. There must be some blurring in the tail structure due to its rapid movement. Frame cropped to about 2.5 by 3.5 degrees.

Nice image Stefan. More reports of naked eye visibility coming in from dark sites. Hope to eyeball it when the weather clears.
