That's very good John.
Great capture.
What sort of gear were you using?

Thanks Michael,
I used a SkyWatcher Equinox 120 Scope and a SX H16 CCD Mounted on a Losmandy G11. Nine stacked 90 sec images.

I can't understand the circular shape to the right of the comet tail. The position was RA 11 29 51 Dec +4 3 41. Maybe a reflection but I did not have it last week with the same optical train.

John
