This link is to my animated image of the comet ISON on Jan16 2013.

Right now this comet is so tiny and dim but in november-december 2013 will be visible by naked eye possibly
with long tail and very bright coma .Here is link to wikipedia about discovery
and prediction
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C/2012_S1

ok this is my image of the comet on Jan 16 2013.Stack on comet.
There is tiny a spot on 6 o'clock position down from the center.
One more image but stack on stars and ignore comet position so comet's streak
movement is visible .There also very small ,dim galaxies around like Ic 2199 .
Bright star to the left is Castor in constellation Gemini.
