Details:
The comet is sinking lower in the eastern sky each morning, making it harder to get in a dark sky. Such are disadvantages of our southerly latitude. The tail was seen while the head was in a cloud bank this morning, protruding about 15 degrees upward. Such an amazing sight. The gas tail is now separating from the dust as seen here, and the comet is requiring shorter and shorter focal lengths to fit in the field.
The image is with the SV80mm f/4.3 Stellarvue astrograph, Canon Xti and a stack of 11x30s exposures.
