Beautiful night for astronomy in Lowestoft tonight. Used my Altair Astro 66mm. Doublet refractor on my Star Adventurer mount to take widefield images of Comet 41P Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresak in Ursa Major. Try as I might I wasn't convinced that I could see it through my 11x80mm binoculars but my Canon 600d DSLR captured it easily at ISO 1600 and 30sec exposure. Rather a nice little green comet! Grandchildren coming tomorrow for the weekend, two very nice little girls , so image processing will take a very poor second place until at least Monday.
Night night stargazers where ever you are.
