Details:
On Saturday evening (the day of A3's closest approach to Earth) I took this shot from the east shore of White Rock Lake in East Dallas, with the old Pump Station and its distinctive smokestack in view. Despite A3's brightness, it's a challenge to spot in urban areas without optical aids. Even with my Nikon D750, while the coma is easily visible, the tail remains quite faint.
