Another Lovejoy thread

[Astralstroll]

Having seen the recent reports about comet Lovejoy and the prospect of a clear, well cloud free, night I decided to set the alarm for 3.30. Took about five minutes to get the Dob set up and found the much awaited Lovejoy pretty quickly. A lot brighter than I was expecting and with not much evidence of a tail. Had a brief diversion to the Beehive and then dwelled upon the comet for a while. Rather perfectly placed in my opinion. Next stop, ISON.

Bagged it with 15x70 bins this morning. I could spot a hint of tail, but not much.
