Comet from hospital carpark!!

Managed to sneak away from work for 30 minutes to snaggle a few images, but tricky trying to avoid the lights, and couldnt go too far.

Was very happy to spot the comet though!!

First image obviously ... too many lights .... or multiple comets.

Thankyou Bob and jjj, ooh, bugger that rain!!

Have been concerned that my tail seems to be going in the opposite direction than everyone elses! Also my tail seems to come out further down in Scorpious ... oh well, still a tail anyway.

Too many streetlights around my way. I was like a deer in headlights. Then I had those damn clouds start to pop up. Might try again tomorrow morning...take a hike up to Cambridge Park just up the road. Might be a tad better from there.
