Details:
Comet C/2023 P1 (Nushimura) at perihelion 32 million km from our star, captured last night from Pico de las Nieves, in Gran Canaria under very extreme conditions of clouds, drizzle and wind since the sea of clouds was overflowing just at that altitude on the island (2000m). We only had a few seconds of observation window with clouds that passed quickly, to hunt the comet again almost touching the horizon. Later it did not clear again until after 9:30 p.m. (local time).
The comet can be seen to the left of the image. To the right, Pico Teide, on the island of Tenerife
148mm /4.5 ISO 5000 exp 1" 20:04 UT
