Details:
Only the light pollution was worse than the 3 degree Celsius outside (a rare extreme for Lisbon). Nevertheless I went out to spot Lovejoy with my 10x50 binoculars and shoot 4 photos. To compensate for the bad conditions offered by the urban skies, I tried to make the best in post-processing: removed CCD noise, subtracted uneven background, individually centred and rotated the four frames before stacking, and normalized the intensity so that Rigel become saturated).
The second photo uploaded is one of the raw frames.
