Nice one Mac! 
The tail has come out beautifully. 
It's very obviously a comet!

Well done Mac, that is great

This was just a quick process.

I'll spend a little more time on it and see if i can get  it a lot better.

Wow! a comet... not an image I was expecting from the weekend.  I'm looking forward to seeing the final image.

Nice one Mac.

Great shot Mac. There can't be many comets in the societies repertoire. Nice alternative to deep sky objects. Looking forward to seeing the reprocess.
