Details:
An exquisite predawn summer sky vista of bright Comet NEOWISE with forked tails , and planet Venus at it's brightest for this apparition embedded in the Hyades cluster in conjunction with Aldeberan. A cameo appearance by the Pleiades cluster completes the starscape. Foreground was illuminated by the waning gibbous Moon
Photographed from dark Canal Park in my neighborhood in the heart of downtown Cody Wyoming . I used a Nikon D5300 dslr with a manual 24mm AIS Nikkor wide angle lens ( eq. to 36mm focal length ) . Exposure was 8 seconds at f/4 at ISO 1600. Image was denoised using Nik Dfine plugin but otherwise unaltered.
After the comet faded into the dawn twilight the International Space Station made a pass very near to it . All in all a splendid start to Wyoming statehood day
