I think that photo, unlike most of the ones I've seen, shows very well what 
we've been seeing through our scopes.

This is the first use of Mira, my home-made Lurie-Houghton telescope, in
a year and a half. It was really nice to use it again and I even
remembered how to set it up. Right now it's being used with a bright
street light shining on my yard, but the scope is at least in the shade
of my patio cover.

So, here's my attempt at photographing the comet from far from an ideal
site, but it worked well enough for this. . .
