Carrying around my 20" obsession is going to kill me,
but what a way to go.

Seanie,
Thanks for the kind comments,
It really would have been impossible to get that pic without registax.
I went out to get it thinking I'd have a 25% chance, but the clouds parted and there it was, couldnt see it with the naked eye, but good old goto got it again,
There was no way I was going to sweep the sky in a 12 " unprotected scope where the object is only 8,5 degrees away from the Sun with it still above the horison !!!
