Actually a surprise to see a dusty rich field as well as comet much brighter than I expected.  Comet is just past Perihelion on Oct 29, 2022 (2.4 AU) and relatively close to us @ 1.5A.U. when I used 17 x 120second lights to stack on a high clouded night.  This a 15th magnitude that appears somewhat brighter to my untrained mind.
