Details:
Tonight the head and tail of comet 2023 was easily visible and captured. This photo was captured just before the comet set when it was finally dark enough to yield good contrast of the object. Captured with a Nikon Z8 and Nikon 180 mm ED FX lens, a goodie but oldie lens favored by astrophotographers for decades. The Tucson sky is very dusty poor air quality does not help. Tomorrow the comet will be higher.
