First shot rapidly processed before heading to bed. Could just pick
the comet out from my back garden through a gap in the hedge. Field of
view of the image is ~1.5x2.5 degrees.

A couple of additional image have now been added.


Great stuff, Pete. Looks like you had not just a gap in the hedge but
snuck in just under some high fluffy clouds

I really like fact that you got the tail.

What mount do you have that scope on?

That particular shot was taken on a GP-DX mount, unguided. However,
it's quite short and the field quite wide so drive tolerance isn't
that tight.
