Equipment Details:

Nikon D90 with Nikkor F/1.4, Shutter: ISO 1250, F/1.4, at 4 seconds

Post-processing Details:

Each photo is a stack of 6 with DeepSkyStacker. The 2 photos are then cropped and pasted side by side for comparison.

Image Details:

Winter in this area are cloudy. We had 2 rare nights of clear sky. I took a few photos. The comet happened to be in an interesting part of the sky, near Mars, Aldebaran, and Pleiades. (Pleiades were cropped for clarity.)
The photo was not great: my equipment is limited, and the sky was quite bright. Seeing it moving across Taurus is somewhat interesting, however.
