Details:
I caught a glimpse of comet C/2018 Y1 (Iwamoto) on the evening of February 12 not long after its closest pass by earth at some 45 million km away. It was a bit chilly out (-32°C), and my camera was struggling with the cold. The next time this comet will be passing near us will be around the year 3390 so it was my one chance to see this object.
