Comet Mcnaught

the following is comet mcnaught which was visible from south africa in 2008 i think it was. the photo was taken with a tripod:

Wow! It looks really nice and serene up in the sky. Also I love the colours.

thanks, i was happy to just get a shot of this once in a lifetime occurance

very great shot. Thanks for sharing.

absolutely stunning!!! EXIF?

Nice, I wish the recent visitation of Comet McNaught was as spectacular. Sadly, it was not!

59mm, 30sec exposure at f5.6, iso 100.
back when i took this photo i didnt really know what i was doing. im rather lucky it came out well

Thanks for the EXIF Lucky or not, that's a shot to be proud of...love the colours...almost looks like sci-fi art

beautiful colors, perfect scene to the take the picture of a comet.

thanks for the compliments everyone

here is another from the same time.. i think i like it more actually.

its interesting, if you adjust the brightness and contrast for the above image, or if you look closely you can see that the comet tail extends very far into the top of the image and fans out. il have a look for a shot that i completely overexposed to see the tail even though i knew the photo would come out lame..

here it is:
