About this image

With about 5 hours of clear sky yesterday I managed to photograph 3 comets, I was also hoping to pick the 4th pre-dawn C/2021 Leonard but the clouds ended the session.

You can also see some faint galaxies, brightest is IC 2180 mag.15 just below the lower of the 2 bright stars to the right of the comet.
