Jan 13 Comet McNaught

Not so great a pic, but very difficult to capture.
Here in tropics, setting time is so fast, only about
5 minute window to shoot. Pollution also very bad.
Was excited to even see it, especially after trying
for the past week (am and pm!).

Great capture...not an easy task.

well captured Randy, you caught the tail so I can tell it is a comet, though had no idea there was one around, so thanks for educating me!
