My only question is how come the stars are pulled out into lines?

Mike

Because he is tracking the core of the comet and not the stars and it isd moving FAST !!

p.s. Did you look at my images on the disc yet?

Mike, can I have a copy on Thursday?

Rick

It's a beauty. Thanks, Greg. :wink:

Mike

Chris, I will put all of the images taken with the LX90 onto a CD along with the Nikon software for viewing the NEF files and bring it along tomorrow.

Excellent, don't forget the LPR filter, I don't want you getting to used to it :smile:

Mike

Will do - The camera and the filter have sat in the bag since the obs night as I haven't had a chance to use them. See you tonight.
