OK, here’s one I took on Saturday night.
This is at Kaibab lake. 15 exposures stacked in Starry Landscape Stacker.
Wow! Beautiful! Thanks for posting!
I see you got both tails in the shots. Just amazing. Have you thought of submitting some of them to NASA’s APOD? Your photos look comparable to others I’ve seen there.
Thank you again for sharing these. I’m glad I started this thread.
Thanks.
I’ll have to see what I can come up with when I finish messing with them. I’m still working on a more streamline workflow - my preferred RAW processor (Affinity) doesn’t have a batch process option, so I am trying Raw Therapee, which works pretty well, but has an absolutely arcane interface.
I was going to go out Wednesday to try one last time, but it looks like it’s going to be cloudy. Cross your fingers.
Actually, Hyakutake had a pretty nice tail.
I took this (on film!) around an our outside of Phoenix when it made it’s closest approach. I lucked out that is was close to the North Star, so the motion blur wasn’t too bad. To think what I could have done with my current camera equipment…
I remember how far across the sky it stretched - way more than my primitive film camera could record.
Finally had a clear night yesterday (after two weeks!) so we went out at 12:30am for maximum darkness. It was just visible with the naked eye if you didn’t look straight at it, and easily visible through binoculars, though I could only see one tail. The tail was also a lot more vertical than in @beowulff’s pictures, and pointing to the left; I assume due to the different time of observation?
The brightness of the sky near the horizon makes it more difficult to distinguish, but maybe that’s always the case with comets since they are only visible when close to the sun?
Those pictures are amazing, and you can see a lot more structure than through my ancient binoculars.
@beowulff, great photos. Thank you!
@Roderick_Femm, hey don’t you live in The City? And you saw it from there with all its lights? I am off of 101 near Mountain View and my plan is to drive to Pacifica’s Pedro Point to see it. A 1-hr drive away.
With each passing day the moon approaches 1st quarter (where it will be on Monday), so its light will drown out the faint NEOWISE, so I’ll need to do this soon.
I did not find Hyakutake or Hale-Bopp. Why didn’t I? I was licking my wounds, going through a divorce.
But I did see Halley! While that was a fizzle, still it was historically significant.
NEOWISE, I hope I’ll see you.
Yes, I saw it in the early hours of the morning, around 5:00 am, in the NW sky. I assume, at least, that’s what it was, it was too big and bright for a planet. Isn’t today the last time it’s supposed to be visible?
Yes you were looking in the right place. I was surprised that you could see it from in The City, if that’s where you were.
Yes the comet is fading fast. It can still be seen in coming days, according to the articles I read.
We were fortunate enough to be on a cruise for Hayakatuke (my only cruise - good timing!) In the middle of the water at night, it was spectacular.
My wife has been checking out Neowise every clear night. We live in Chicago’s W burbs. We didn’t see it in the morning - were looking in the wrong spot. In the evening, it first became visible at 9:45, and then, only w/ binos. Nice bright head and decent tail. Even by 10:15 or so, you could barely convince yourself you were seeing it w/ naked eye - once you knew EXACTLY where is was.
Wife told me yesterday it was much higher, and barely a smudge. I was in bed! 
I’m in Bradenton Florida and drive east to work. I have been seeing the bright object in the sky and have been wondering what it was. It is very clear at 5 am.
That’s Venus.
Oooh snap!
Welcome keopsyd - impressive debut!
My wife and I were looking at Venus in the a.m. - trying to find a tail, before we went home and found out we needed to look further N and closer to the horizon. For the last week or so, it has been visible in the eve.
It turns out I live kind of near to @Bullitt. This evening I went out to the Baylands at the end of San Antonio road and I didn’t see it (naked eye). This was about 10:30 pm. Might need to use binoculars next time.
Yes, @allyn, hello neighbor, that’s not far from me. Looking NW from there, it’s nothing but city lights after more city lights going up the peninsula from there in Palo Alto to Menlo Park to Redwood City to San Carlos, San Mateo… to San Francisco and beyond. Light pollution to the max.
That’s why I was thinking of driving to Pedro Point in Pacifica, or better yet to the south end of the Devil’s Slide Tunnel. Both are less than an hour away, and from there looking to the NW, there’s nothing but Pacific Ocean in front of you.
Re: Pacifica
Just have to be careful about the coastal fog.
Is it still visible in the morning? Maybe I should get up early and try then…
No, it’s a nighttime object now
Well, if I were to go to Pacifica tonight, Sunday night, if the skies are clear of fog would it be worth it?
Thanks for the reminder about fog, @allyn, good point!
It’s getting faint…
I was able to see it from my back yard last night, through the strong Phoenix skyglow, but it was much harder to spot than last week. Better go now, or wait 6,000 years…
Oh well, it’s not going to happen tonight, or this week. I’ll wait the 6,000 years for the next time.
