Details:
Comet NEOWISE is truly becoming a great comet. Even in still bright dawn sky you can easily see about 3deg long tail with naked eyes. Using 11x70 binoculars, the tail gets suddently about twice longer (12 Full Moons in a row) and who knows how long it could be in dark sky. Well, next week we probably see--Moon is moving to fainter phases in the morning skies and comet the opposite way. Higher and deeper in night. In the image, the comet rises over lights of Úpice city in the Czech Republic, captured from nearby village Svobodné. Used Canon 6D, Pentacon 135mm, ISO 640, 20s exposure from Vixen Polarie mount (for ground tracking movement stopped)
