Hi Nick
  Not far off the view we had with the comet near that star and needed high power to separate from it. Nice image though.

David,

Thanks for the reminder. I noticed that it was getting close a few days 
ago. It just fits in my field of view. A nice clear, moonless night here 
in Chelmsford.

Nick.
