    Very nice!

    You guys had it so much better than us up north. I had one really good view if it and then it was gone from our skies (although some at dark sites did manage to photograph the huge tail).

    its actually not too easy and you do need a tracking telescope mount to keep the stars from trailing during the exposure.
