Very nice, John. I scanned that area with my 10x50's & couldn't find it
either.

Subject: PESO: By the light of the slivery moon
Comet 45P was supposed to be "visible" next to the new moon on New Years
Eve. Our forecast called for rain, but it was clear on the 30th, so I
headed out to see if I could find it a day early. No luck, but I got
images of the almost new moon when it was just a sliver.
K-1 @ ISO 6400; Sigma 300 f/2.8 @ f/4; 0.4 sec exposure ... and some fun
with NIK filters.

This image rated #4 in consideration for the PDML Annual. Numbers 1, 2 &
3 have been uploaded.
Comet 45P is due back in February, so I may capture it yet.
