Details:
2nd night in a row observing C/2020 F3 NEOWISE, what a show!. The comet was visible to the naked eye as a golden visitor with tail two degrees long and this was embedded within NLCs. The view both with the unaided and eye and in the telescope was out of this world. In the low power eyepiece I observed a yellow-gold coma and tail with streamers, hoods and even 2-3 jets from the central condensation, while this was happening NLC bands and waves moved across the comet's tail in real time, I have never seen a sight like it in my life! there are DSLR stills on a static tripod with 100mm-400mm lens.
