Wow im getting excited about this comet! Im going to try and spot it tommorow morning, or the following morning (right now we have clouds) I havent busted out the scope for a while. I hope this will rival Comet 17p/Holmes last October, this time I have my new camera. And now I have a good reason to build a barndoor tracker - anyone have any good links to build one of these?

I was just thinking back to holmes (the first comet I ever saw) and When I went to a super dark sky location, and it was the most magnificent thing I have ever seen, a huge glowing haze - wow do I wish I had my good camera back then! what an expirence, definately was the spark for my interest.
