Observing Session NGC 2261 Hubbles Variable Nebula and C/2013 R1 LOVEJOY

Had a great night observing.

Found another comet C/2013 R1 LOVEJOY.

Comet was easily visible in 12x50 binoculars and scope,  could not see tail.

Also found NCG 2261 , Hubble's Variable Nebula.  At first confused it with comet, then cone nebula but it is NGC 2261 and is very bright.

Here are my notes:






Will check for Cone next time!
