comet holmes&m36

[roccodm]

just a heads up if not already aware- comet holmes and m36 are to be in close proximity on march 28th. also came across this site which i thought was quite nice www.cometchasing skyhound.com. evidently the comet is around 5th mag but appears more nebulous.  wx here has not cooperated so i have not had a chance to site it . might make a nice image with m36 on the 28th. the clusters in auriga are some of my favorites.  on another note i got a real nice deal on an lx90 but i dont think it will be here by the 28th may be close but i think the ar5 should be ok-clear skies to all rocco WB9QPU
