i was stuck in the US during the cloud covered ice storms, but luckily made my way south of the equator just in time to catch mcnaught! the waxing moon was bright enough last night that i managed to get myself in the shot as well.... http://www.pbase.com/astropixie/image/73655477

I couldnt take my eyes of it for about the last 6 nights. The first night it was so bright that I could see a beautiful amber glow and the tale as it arched across our milky way here in New Zealand. One of the best memories I will ever have.

I live in Lismore, NSW, Australia. I have just taken some pics of comet McNaught. Although I have only a digital camera, it looks great in the evening sky. I can upload a couple to you if it would be of benefit.

is there any way we can see this comet as brightly here in Asia? i was thinking that i have seen it last Friday (i live in the Philippines, a little north of the equator) bu ti thought i was just imagining things. i thought i saw some faint comet.

lucky guys in the South.

I’m jealous! Glad to hear that it’s still putting on a show in the south.

PS. Lots of great photos over at Clifford’s. Check out the links in the comments as well.

I’m not buying it – that can’t possibly be Seattle as there aren’t any clouds in the sky.

JoA: if you want to see the comet, take a short ride to Half Moon Bay…
