Many
motorists stopped to have a look at this strange "bush fire"
on the horizon, which turned out to be the extravagant tail
of McNaught!

Comet
McNaught simply floored me with its beauty. I just didn't
expect to see that. All images shot with a Canon
350D. |

After
two days hidden by the clouds, the McNaught Comet showed
its beauty to the Porto Alegre skies, from 9:00 PM until
9:50 PM (local time). Its huge tail over the Guaiba River
caught the people's attention.
