Details:

Trying to photograph the comet is a challenge as it does not rise at this latitude until after Astronomical Twilight (0356 MST).

The comet rise was at 0414 MST and this image was taken at 0425 MST when it was 2°14' above the horizon. The sky was already too bright to see any tail.

Nikon D750, 85mm, ISO 100, ƒ/2.8, 30sec.
