[ATMoB-discuss] Comet McNaught

[noatak at aol.com]

I had a great view of the comet this evening. My hands are just now thawing out! I could see it naked eye quite easily including the tail but it is small.  It became visible about 1/2 hour after sunset and was quite well placed at about 10 degrees above the horizon and then I watched it for another half hour or so until it was just about on the horizon. Through binoculars it was beautiful. I got a number of images and have posted them on the ATMOB website-astronomy gallery.
