About this image

A bright comet on the Comet Section list. Perihelion is on 2023 Jan 12. Altitude in the West during the early evening is about 20 degress. This image was a quick capture before cloud arrived, hence only 5 sec (enough to confirm the comet was there) and then stacked 25 frames. I was lucky to record it. Its located bellow Corona Borealis.
