252p 20160416 danderson

Attached an image I took from South Ayrshire of Comet 252P LINEAR in the early hours of the 16th April. 

It is fading fast now at about Mag 6.0 but climbing higher into the northern hemisphere skies……still spectacular but not a good as earlier in the southern skies!

Taken with a Takahashi TSA 120mm on a Takahashi EM-200 mount with a Canon 5DMk2 SLR, 90 seconds ISO 4000 unguided.
