Details:
Comet Lovejoy (C/2013 R1) has developed a very long tail as seen in the latest images of it. I captured 10x4 min @ ISO 1600 and 8x4 min @ ISO 800 sub-images and combined them for this image. Guiding was on the comet. TV-85 working at F/5.6 (476mm F.L.), IDAS-LPS, modified Canon T3. Note that the inset negative view shows the tail is up to 70 arc minutes in length.
