About this image

When I took this photo from my place in central Portugal, comet NEOWISE was visible from about 4:00 to 4:30 UT, with the Sun's altitude varying from about -12º to -8º. It's not a naked eye object, but easily visible through 10x50 binoculars.

Upper left: the moon is shown to allow a size comparison.
