Sadly, the conditions where really bad. Very humid and hazy, thin veil clouds and cold. But it was the only chance to see at least something, because the weather forecast for the next two weeks is not good.
In the region of the comet I couldn't see one star, so he was difficult to find without a Goto. After one hour everything was frozen, even the camera display already had a layer of ice 😬
So there he is, Wirtanen, a little pale and no tail outside the ball. I guess he got lost in the fog, but it's better than nothing 🙂
