Here is an image of Comet Hoenig I obtained last Saturday night. It is a 3 minute image taken with an SBIG ST-8 and an 8" LX200 at prime focus. The comet has moved a little during the exposure, but it still shows the nice central condensation, the large outer coma and the hint of a faint tail.

Cheers,

Maurice
