Details:
Comet 2022 E3 ZTF and Capella which is the 6th brightest star (it is really 2 binary pairs) had a close conjunction. Really challenging conditions, a full Moon is bad enough, but as darkness onset the clouds rolled in. A single 120 sec hole in the clouds was available and this is a stack of 90 sec (10sec x 9) of the best images. Captured with a Vixen VSD astrograph and a Nikon Z7II at 1000 iso.
