Re: [APML] M31 and the Comet Tonight

Chris: I did a early morning attempt from CA on the 4th.  The sky muck
and moon combined to make things difficult.  The window was very brief
and M31 was a couple of degrees away from I-K.  I should have pushed for
an evening shot as well, but the endurance wasn't there.  Stephen Pitt
