Thanks Wayne, I think that would depend on what size telescope you used. In
my 80mm refractor, it was very faint indeed.
Clear Skies,

Nice image, Chris. I think the visual impact of the comet is quite good as
well, especially at this stage of its development. I wouldn't call it a "bust".

Hi all,
�
One clear night in our monsoon and I was out there going deep on this 7.5
magnitude object in Sagitta.� The head is a very nice emerald green color,
while the faint tail is a short fan.� The comet is really moving fast against
the background stars in this 90 minute exposure, so form some very colorful
trails with many red and orange stars I would assume from thier location in the
heart of the Milkyway:
