Very nice image. Do you submit your total magnitudes to COBS? I don't see them there.

Your Tycho total mag looks good for Aug 30. Did you do this using the method described by Parrott and Zakrajsek in Comet's Tale 43? I would be interested in doing some direct comparisons with our comphot data if you can send your ICQ formatted data to me.
