This was taken on the 25th of November with the 106 and M25C. It had a longer tail than I expected, having just seen it with 10x50 binoculars, and positioned the head too near the middle of the frame, so missing some of the long tail. But I didn't get a second chance as clouds closed me down so I got no more than 20x60sec frames. They should have been 30sec as 60sec overexposed the head. Wise after the event of course. Hopefully I'll get a second try another night. The second photo is of a single heavily stretched and sharpened frame cropped to the head alone, and looking carefully I think I can see outgassing from two positions to the front of the nucleus, or am I imagining?
