Comets Lovejoy + Jacques last night


Recommended Posts

Despite a bright full moon low down in SE last night a couple of shots of Comet Lovejoy in Draco and Jacques.  The latter in rich Cygnus starfield and tracked #1 on stars [comet moves - I prefer this one!] and #2 on comet head [stars blur]..  For C/Lovejoy tracked on head but movement against stars very slight. 

Lovejoy mag 9.5 but very diffuse.  Jacques mag 11.0 but bright and condensed.   Both comets past their best but a worthy challenge :police:
