Veli-Pekka Hentunen and Markku Nissinen photographed again comet 4P/Faye in 16./17.11.2006 (21:45-22:16 finnish time). The comet is about 9.5 magnitude object and it is possible to observe visually even with small telescopes. In this CCD -picture, you can see a dim tail of the comet. At the time this picture was taken, the comet was low in the quite bright southern sky. There was also some fog and the humidity was about 90%, the temperature was about -5 celsius. This picture is stacked version of 20x90s exposured CCD -pictures. No filters used for this picture.
