A couple of not-so-great images of the asteroid/comet passage this
morning. These were taken as I was bringing the auto guider online, so
there is considerable shift between frames. Dew was rapidly forming on
the corrector plate, evident in the difference in contrast between the
two frames.
Both images are 15 seconds at ISO 800 through a C11 with a focal
reducer. The faint star to the northeast of the target in the second
frame is about magnitude 12.3.
