Comet C/2012 K1 PANSTARRS as seen last Saturday night through some high thin haze..but it came out okay...this 8th Magnitude Comet looked great visually through an 18" Obsession Scope while observing with my good friends Ron, Kristie, & Justin on 05-31-2014. I captured this 15 minute exposure with my Homemade 16" Newt. Scope & QHY8 CCD Camera while Tracking on the Comets Nucleus! Its still near the legs of Ursa Major..so go have a look if you get clear skies! Best Regards, John Chumack www.galacticimages.com

Both are nice pictures, and one is not better than the other. Both are genuine- the one by Mr. Chumack is a closer representation of what can be seen visually. Mr. Peach uses advanced techniques to bring out details otherwise not identified.
