Comet Lovejoy From My Scope This Morning 12-12-13!!(Updated processed pics)
Got up about 4:30am this morning and had to rush and make coffee and set up the scope. Also had some problems getting aligned. I think it was too low for my scope when I started and messed up the alignment some how who knows. One of those mornings...lol. Anyways I did get a few pictures before sunrise. The pics. are single exposures. I may try to stack some images later. [link to i1297.photobucket.com] [link to i1297.photobucket.com] Third pic is a reference pic of the comet and of light pollution. [link to i1297.photobucket.com] Here is a few processed pics. I'm new to the processing so is pretty much just messing around.

beautiful capture of it nice work ~ !
Apocalypse ( "lifting of the veil" or "revelation") is a disclosure of something hidden from the majority of mankind in an era dominated by falsehood and misconception, i.e. the veil to be lifted.

It has already been closest to the Earth I believe. So no it has already passed and is headed for a Dec.25th perihelion.
