Description

This is Comet we All (Northern and Southern hemisphere) can see and getting brighter! Estimated closest to earth around April 23, 2021 (~0.43au) with perihelion on March 1, 2021. I've been fighting moonlight since April1 on this morning target. Finally this morning Apr8, 2021 I could grab decent 51 x 120 second light frames and process.

This is a JPEG. I'll submit the Lossless PNG version shortly.
