Details:
Not really visible to the naked eye as it was caught up in the pre dawn twilight. Very nice in camera however as it rose above Clyde Island on Tasmania's Eaglehawk Neck this morning.
The shot is two 30 second exposures using the cameras Astro Tracer function. One tracked the stars and comet and in doing so blurred the horizon, so I captured another shot with a straight horizon and merged the two.
