This is a 30-minute exposure. I tracked the head of the comet as it moved across the skies. At the time it was very close to earth, so even in 30 minutes its movement is quite obvious - the star images are trailed by the distance the comet moved!

This 25-minute exposure was taken with a wider-angle lens to show the length of the comet's tail.
