[Chaos-l] comet view

[E. Allen Davis]

I was struck by the beauty of the comet last night,....even from the light polluted parking lot and looking through electric wires. 



it seems to be a perfect example of a classic comet.  i was reminded of some of the pictures i had seen of Comet West....this almost to me was a "baby" example of that shape.  bright nucleus with a slightly curved fanned tail like pics i have seen of West.

see two pics of west near bottom of above page. 



worth the view, and really not hard to find even with the lights and the glow in the sky.  allen
