Details:
Finally the clouds parted long enough to image Catalina. This is a back porch target for me now. The tails are getting dimmer as the comet recedes, as always better seen in the inverted monochrome. The comet was cuminating during the session so celestial north is to the bottom of the frame. Little competition for it as it passes in front of the dim starfield of Camelopardalis. Details: Camera: Pentax K-3
