It's incredible to think that this is what I've been imaging.

Credit JPL.

I managed to capture a lot more subs tonight, but the transparency wasn't as good.

48 x 30sec subs.

This is what I wanted... trailing stars, from DSS.

Takahashi piggy backed onto C9.25.

Shot with my HTC Desire phone.

Finally got the processing sorted with help from the guys on Yahoo DSS group.
Looks like a comet tail is appearing.

My stacking program is not working correctly at the moment, I was hoping to get a better image with trailing stars. Bear with me.

Here's a quick process of comet Hartley 2 from tonight. Better to come tomorrow.
