Here are three views of the same image, each processed a bit differently. They were shot on the evening of March 21 using the C5+ at f/6.3. The image was 15 - 1 second integrations in Track & Accumulate mode using a Celestron PixCel 255.

This image is the standard shot, no processing done. | |
| This is the same image log stretched. You can see the tail very well and also the waves around the coma faintly. | |
|
Here are the jets isolated, I used a techinque described in CCD Astronomy for this one, I ran a Gaussian filter to blur the original then subtracted it from the original. What is left is the detail around the coma with the what looks to be a single jet and a few waves in front. |
