The comet was
much brighter this evening. I picked it up with my eye only
seven minutes after sunset! I'd estimate the magnitude at
around -3.0. Truly a view to remember. What an amazing comet!

Comet McNaught
(C/2006 P1) has become very impressive!!! As each sunset
passes it gets brighter and brighter. It's been an inspiring
week.

I thought that
tonight 01/11/06 it would be very hard to see the comet--not
so! The comet was easy to find and I watched her for a long
time in the company of a hunting hawk.

Comet NcNaught
at sunset from my yard in Rochester, WA. Was interesting
to see it 'pop' brightly out of the haze of sunset.

I just caught
Comet McNaught. It's getting very close to the Sun--a treat
while driving west.

I heard about the comet on the news and stepped out onto my patio to see its brilliance within the twilight glow.
