Comet Encke on Oct 8, 2013. 30×120 sec @ ISO 1600, TV-85 at F/5.6, Canon T3 (modified.)
It is somewhat unusual to have 3 relatively bright comets all in the morning sky at the same time. This one, I think, is the brightest and the other two, Comet Lovejoy and Comet ISON, are close behind. Anyway, I managed to get data on all three comet in two mornings of imaging. Its a comet hunter’s dream come true!
