Well, after getting a small glimpse through a gap in the clouds on Friday night, I took the family up to Bribe Island hoping to get a good look at the comet. The view from there was great. Here's some pics I took. You'll also see Venus and the crescent moon in a couple of the pics.

The 1st couple of pics where 8 second exposures and the rest where 13 second exposure.

If I could get my animated gif software to work, the last three could make an animation.

Awesome - is it still viewable for a few more days? I wouldn't mind trying to catch a glimpse.
