Details:
Comet Wirtanen early Sunday morning at it's closest and brightest. I drove two hours to Indian Fields in Shelburne County for dark skies since this may be my last opportunity to image the comet due to increasingly fewer hours of moonlight free viewing and the weather. It was very easy to find due to it's proximity to the Pleiades star cluster on lower left.Canon 6D, Canon 200mm f2.8 at f2.8. 3X40 sec exposure at ISO 3200.
