Super happy with this.

Over my 3 years imaging I have seen comets and asteroids come and go, so was hell bent on capturing this one now because I probably won't have a chance to image it the next time it visits us. I had one night (the weather has been terrible) to get this one before it disappeared out of sight and I had a window of about an hour before a 100% moon came up, coupled with trying to get my son ready for rugby, helping my youngest daughter with her homework and getting a second rig fully functional for the 1st time, it was pretty stressful! Unfortunately due to a memory issue with the second laptop, when I got back from rugby training, I had captured just the 4 subs. Decided to bite the bullet and image during the rapidly rising moon. As a result of the moon and high level thin clouds I could not get the tails to be shown, but I got the comet!!! A 1st for me and it also commissions my second rig so doubly happy.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
