Description

My first attempt at color imaging for the comet.  I used PI's CometAlign process to extract the comet.  I was having some troubles getting it to produce a comet-subtracted starfield, so i used the starfield from Nov 29.  I know it is a bit "cheating" but if anyone is going to the trouble to platesolve this and see that the position is off by a day, well good on you

I do plan to continue processing this and seeing what I can do.  I also have data from Dec 1, so maybe I'll figure out a way to combine/stack all of the comet data from the 3 days that I have.
