Jealous, jealous, jealous.

We were stuck with cloudy skies the whole time. Well, possibly I spotted it on the Monday at sunrise (on my way to an exam) but, given my location at the time (under the flightpath of the airport) I kept thinking I might have been looking at an airplane contrail.

Then again, comparing these photos to what I did see from the train, maybe I did manage an eyewitness view. *brightens*

PS missing you over at the other place, but I remember from your postings here you'd been laid low with some kind of crud atop the usual physio demands. *hugs* to you. And great pictures!

Or click on tag mcnaught, and you can see all of the images/video.

Yeah, December holiday time wasn't great for me. Just a run of food poisoning one week, stomach flu the following week, then a nasty chest cold/flu the week after that. I do seem to be on the mend. :D

Great pictures, yet somehow the pictures never seem to capture the full experience!

Im glad our skies cleared up and it put on such a fantastic show for you as well

I still have other shots to go though. The wind was extremely gusty, and I ended up using someone as an 'anchor/eq10 mount" to help keep camera steady. So I 'cheated' by making a video clip. :)

Glad to share em to appreciative people.

How cool! Wish I could see it here... too much rain... :-)

There is still time to see it. Didn't have too much luck last night, as there was clear skies last night, with the notable exception of where the comet would come up. Joy. *sigh* will try again tonight.
