Nice photo, Bob! Thanks for posting it.

I spent an hour last night trying to see the comet from my front yard with binoculars and then a 6" dob. It was invisible in the light-polluted sky.

Hey Bob, very nice shot!!! Ya it's a faint one alright. I had a hard time seeing it as well with the binos and the 12in.
