Hi!  Ok, this entry is going to be another "catch-up" entry to add in some images that I have not yet put into the blog.  I will leave out those that made it into the blog due to being published as you have already seen those images :)  Hope you enjoy if you haven't yet seen :)

Here is a screenshot of the thumbnail for that day:

Comet C/2014 Q2 (Lovejoy)

http://jeffjastro.com
Hi everyone. This entry is just to log Comet C/2014 Q2 (Lovejoy). I actually imaged it twice, once with my Canon T3i DSLR piggybacked on my FS-60C and EM200 mount. A little later, weather was nice again, and so I wanted to point the FS-60C at it for a closer look. Both images and links to the images with details on my main site are below.
