Comet PANSTARRS is getting harder to see from my location. Tonight's images are probably the last that I will take. I missed the opportunity last night to get a shot of the comet with the Moon, so I tried to make up for that tonight:

Hey Rory,
ReplyDeleteGreat pics!
Ryan and I were able to get a few shots too while he was home for spring break. The view to the west is almost non-existent from our house so we headed a few miles north off Hwy 75.
Check them out at Ryan's site: http://midnightastronomy.blogspot.com/
