Comet Lovejoy C/2014 Q2 from Singapore

My 2nd attempt at shooting a comet and much better results this time round. Taken at Sentosa, Singapore. Took me quite some time to locate it and have to struggle with moving cloud patches and fog on the lens after locating it. But still managed to collect enough subs for this noisy image. After stacking and PS, the tail is faintly visible in the image....what a joy...Lovejoy
