Details:
Went out to Martinez Lake in Arizona last night to see it and the lake was nice and still like a mirror. Also thankful that the mosquito repellent worked and the locals also thought it was neat. The comet had a longer tail than it did last night and it is about as long as Hyakutake's was about 35 degrees. Despite moonlight and light pollution, it was so bright that it was easily photographed at ISO 1600, f / 4 @ 10 sec., 45mm focal length around 7:40 P.M. Mountain Time. Gear used tripod + 3 second delay to avoid camera shake + SONY RX100 VII.
