Comet ISON C/2012 S1 On November 13th, 09:41-51ut. Two dense tails at the trailing end (neg). Severe gradients (sun glare) and tree branchs at the mountain range playing havoc with my guider, Could be my last session until it wraps around the sun if all goes well.

Comet ISON C/2012 S1 On November 14th, 09:41-45ut. Very low now and rising above the mountain tops and the sunrise influence effecting image quality.

Fifteen 8 second exposures (ISO 1600 / Canon T2i with a 100 mm f/2.0 lens at f/2.8) were stacked of Comet Lovejoy (C/2013 R1) on November 14, 2013 using ImagesPlus. The comet has really increased in size and brightness since my last photograph of Lovejoy!

Is or should Comet Lovejoy be naked eye visible at the moment?

I believe that comet Lovejoy has just barely reached naked eye visibility. The morning that I photographed the comet, I was just able to make it out using averted vision. See: http://www.spaceweather.com/archive.php ... &year=2013

Using the 4 comet image posted by sandgirl above, and drawing a set of converging lines from the dipper cup, I located what appeared to be a tiny greenish speck in the sky at 6am. Perhaps lovejoy is more than just visible now
