Gidday ROb ,
Good to see some one had a go at this.
I managed to get one shot Via GRAS, for your consideration

I was trying for a color sequence but got shut out by another user running long
exposures with G12.
Bit of a shame, and then the weather turned....

Kind regsrds, Alan Watson

Very rough, sorry. Bright moonlight & an RA drive behaving very erratically.
Only ended up with 1 good and 3 'usable' subs out of 12.

4 x 23 sec, piggybacked Canon 400D at 200mm, ISO 1600, F/6.3. 8 July 09, 10:45
UT. Separation of comet & galaxy 56' 47". Will be closer tomorrow night.
