ISON telescope sent me pictures of Comet ISON again this morning - 11/18/13.
One picture is really cool and unusual, it shows the shock wave of air in front of comet ISON. It may not be actual air, but you can see the wave patterns in front of the comet.
I emailed him and asked if the picture he sent me yesterday with a perfectly round coma, if he had covered it or if that was the real coma and what he thought the two things in the tail are. The picture I was inquiring about is at the bottom in a video.
Here is my email to him and his response back to me without being changed:
My email:
This last picture is amazing! I have to ask two things.
First is the coma covered by you or is it that perfectly round?
Second what do you think are those two objects right after the coma area, starting the tail?
Thank you again for everything!

Hi!
Picture of comet obtained in ISON-Kislovodsk observatory three hours ago, and parte of the same picture in filters.
1. Is interraction of solar wind and coma - wave because of big speed of comet
2. Yes, is the starting the tail.
I will be away of Moscow in next couple days, possibly without of Internet access.
Cheers,
Igor
