Last night was an exceptionally good night. I did UBV photometry 
around midnight and Comet Holmes was nearly overhead and easily naked 
eye visible. I have been foiled several times in the past couple of 
weeks with thin unseen clouds spoiling the photometry, but last night 
was great.

If I had the energy I would have fired up my 12" LX200GPS and taken 
some comet images, but I decide bed time was more important.
