Comet Imaging Session - January 9, 2015
The sky this evening is hazy with some passing clouds.  I had to wait for a clearing around 9:45pm to setup my portable Vixen Polarie mount  with Canon EOS 500D DSLR with EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 IS L lens.  With the severe light pollution in my place.  It was very difficult to even see the comet with a pair of 10x50 binoculars.  I slide back to 100mm and was able to locate the comet which is about to be block by our roof so I made some quicky shots before I got obstructed.  Not that good but still ok for me.  I also had a chance to observe with my son KC and also teach him some bright stars visible like Sirius, Rigel and Betelgeuse and Orion's belt.
