15p 20150124 jnassr

I have wanted to image Comet Finlay 15P for some time but weather did not permit. It was finally clear last night with the comet around 2 degrees from a four day old moon that caused reflections inside my telescope tube. The height of this 13 minute exposure is just less than one degree.
