    There's a new Comet in the Sky (for a little while!)

    Comet Lovejoy is 'faintly' visible in the night sky at the present.It should be clearer through binoculars.

    Assuming we actually get a clear night over the next couple of weeks I'll be trying to photograph it.

    (Canon 7D Mk1 with Sigma 50-500mm telephoto)

    If anyone else is interested in trying, the observation details are available at the link below

    Thanks for the link although I doubt if I will be able to see it. Freaking cold out there to be out and about!
