About this image

Four members of Crayford Astronomical Society met up at a local vantage point to look for Comet Tscuchinshan-ATLAS. The sky had cleared after late afternoon rain so we were hopeful. It took approx 15 minutes of hunting with binoculars but it was finally spotted using a pair of 8x42 binoculars.
