7/15/2020 NEOWISE

Comet C/2020 (F3) NEOWISE from Wednesday evening. From the side of Highway 10 at an entrance to the Maumelle River WMA. This was a single 4 second image at f/4 with a 50mm lens on my Canon 800D at ISO 800. In my 10×42 binoculars, I could see a tail stretching about 3 degrees or six times the width of the Moon. This was taken at about 9:30 PM. It was directly below the Big Dipper tonight and should get higher in the evening sky for a while. Go see it.
