Comet McNaught C/2009 R1 passing Mu Persei & 48 Persei


May not be my best picture, but it was the most challenging. Barely above the horizon and lit by the midnight Sun here at 52N, I had to hang out my attic window to catch it. Taken with Stellarvue 80ED and Starlight Xpress M25c, 1920s total, 23 images. Comet focused image layered over background-focused.
