[BAA Comets] [comets-ml] is there any value in visual drawingsof comets

[Andrew Robertson]

That was one big tail! Brilliant, many thanks for this. Off now to where I
keep my 600mm dobsonian for a couple of nights observing (if the forecast
holds up).

Regards,

Andrew

Hi Andrew,
     I have put them individually in my gallery at DP Review, link below to
the first.

You can click on them to increase size, but they are low res. Not pretty but
an accurate daily record, charts by Guide 8. If you have time to waste there
many assorted photos there, from comets to kangaroos. Hope you do get a
bright comet to look at in the next month or so.
Regards,   Jim.
