Folks,
Sunday night was clear on the east side of the state and I was fortunate enough to have my camera arrive to catch the comet going by M57. I had to shorten my truss tubes to achieve in-focus. Then, after reassembling everything, recollimating, and getting the Servocat going I slewed over to M57 and was imaging within 30 seconds.
Note: the moon was waxing gibbous, and you can still see the central star!
Sure hope you guys got to see it - it was truly spectacular, and reminded me of the SAAA observing session at my home years ago in Holland when we watched saturn occult a bright star…
Later,
Robert
