I checked on Comet SWAN tonight (27 May, MDT). It was VERY low in the sky by the time it got dark enough to try pictures. So seeing that low (~6 degrees) was awful. The tail was plainly visible in images but odd that it appeared to be all tail and no head. North is up, east to the left. FOV is 18x26 arc minutes. 1 minute exposure through C-14 operating at f/5.5. Camera is an SBIG ST-10XME. I tried to see it through my C-5 but no luck with tha |
