Comet Lovejoy

My first video of Comet Lovejoy! Shot it last night (1/19) shortly after viewing it for the first time through my 127mm Mak! Exciting times!

Enjoy!

Very cool! Thanks for posting. I'm beginning to see that C/2014 Q2 (Lovejoy) is to be the most photographed/imaged comet in history.

Clear Skies,

Dave

Thanks, Dave. I agree with you that Lovejoy will probably be the most imaged comet in history. I wish I had the gear I have now when Hyakutake and Hale-Bopp put on their spectacular shows back in 1996 and 1997 respectively. I did get some VHS shots of those comets, in the old video archives, LOL. Did you get any images of Hyakutake or Hale-Bopp back in the day?

Cheers,

Reggie

No I didn't. I was too busy then moving house & home to get back into astronomy. But I certainly did enjoy viewing both. Both were easily spotted - even with light-pollution.

Onwards & Upwards,

Dave
