Comet NEAT Q4. One of the naked eye comets of April 2004 (for the other one being in Australia was necessary) imaged while it moved out of Gemini and became circumpolar. It wasnt especially easy to see at 3-4th magnitude but was visible under dark skies. This image was obtained by Kev Wildgoose using an MX916 CCD camera and a 135mm lens. He stacked 6 images of 120s exposure.
