Peter,

Thanks. Those are nicely processed images which pick up both the faint
ion tail in PA 25 and the small spike in the opposite direction. As you
say, this is a very fast-moving comet so needs stacks of short exposure
subframes.

Thanks also for submitting your images to the archive. Could you add the
orientation and field of view in the caption please? This helps a lot
when it comes to analysis. From comparison with other images your image
either doesn't have north at the top or it is mirror imaged but it is
hard to tell which.

This is not so important with planets since you can generally quickly
tell the scale and orientation. It is much more difficult with comets!

Nick.
