Album Info: | I was scanning the sky one last time for the Comet 45P/Honda-Mrkos-Pajdušáková with the camera, my "big lens" (Sony 400mm f4) and tripod. After an hour of searching the published coordinates, I heard a train coming north, and the honey said I ought to try and take a picture of it anyway.. So, I figured the night shouldn't be a total loss. Glad she was right, because I couldn't find that comet to save my life.
