Comet Lovejoy From My Scope 11-28 !!!

Thanks and.....it is GREEN!!!!!

Cool!! Thanks for posting them!

Yeah.....seems all of them lately are green.

No problem...if Ison makes it a couple more weeks.....Both Ison and Lovejoy will be in the sky together in the Northern sky. More pics to come.

Those were good pictures, please tell some about the telescope, camera and software you used.

I have a rabbit called Lovejoy
and a guinea pig named Ison.
They are best friends.

lol

Nope

Comet Lovejoy was my porn name

These images are superb!

I am trying to get a good view of Lovejoy this week but the weather seems to be against me. I am also trying to encourage people to look at Lovejoy from this thread

Thread: 2013 The the year of the Comet. The ISON number that no one is talking about. Focus on Lovejoy!

So I will you a link back to here, your pictures are unmissable!

K

Sweet! Nice quality imagery. The Horse and Cow made me laugh too.

5 stars OP...

Thanks;)

What is it now?...lol

What's your telescope setup?

To me Lovejoy has been better than Ison for awhile now......she is now a naked eye Comet and has an almost 10 degree tail. [link to spaceweathergallery.com] [link to spaceweathergallery.com]

Nice.....so 8" Orion scope.
Been looking at these 8-10" scopes myself.

That one does some really nice shots for just a single exposure.

Thanks.

No love or joy happening with this comet it seems. No photography from Astro?

Because it doesn't look like a spaceship?

Or does it?.....lol

Nice. Here is my set up. I have a 10".
