Here is a very basic shot of Comet McNaught taken with a tripod mounted Canon 30D at ISO 640. The lens used was a Tamron 300mm F2.8 with a 1.4x extender. It was a very windy night and not as nice as last night. With snow coming, this is probably it for us.
Exposure was 1/50 of a second.

Here's an image that was taken later at 1/8th of a second as it dimmed in the clouds.
