Details:
An astounding jump in brighness the past week for this comet, now riding high near the beehive cluster in Cancer. Was JUST able to see this comet naked eye, but in the 11 x 80s the view was stunning.
This shot is a one hour combined exposure time with my 12.5" newtonian in northern Arizona. I used a ST10XME CCD camera with 1 min subs.
