Comet 2006/A1 Pojmanski

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.

Reminds me of Hyakatake (sp?). You sure have the knack!

Lovely!

For some reason the page title is Machholz...

Sorry - it is Pojmanski - promise :-)

I'd been up all night and grabbed the first html file I could out of
my comet folder as a quick template. Didn't realise it was a titled
page. It's correct now!

Excellent Pete,

The colour nicely confirms the Swan band C2 molecules seen in my spectrum

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.
