This image of Comet C/2001
Q4 (Neat) was taken near its peak intensity (approximately mag 3.3) and
was located in the constellation of Monoceros during this capture. As
can be seen in this image, the comet is a fast moving object. A total
of 32 shots of 1 minute each were assembled for this which was taken from
my light polluted driveway (just visible using averted vision).
