Details:
The Moon is finally not so bright for catching another current bright comet. It's a "meanwhile comet" during ISON-mania, but still very beautiful and visible by naked eyes. I estimated the brightness of comet Lovejoy to +4,5 magnitude. Also you can see the tail ends nearby faint Whirpool galaxy in Canes Venatici. Used Canon 550D, Samyang 24 mm, f4, 24x30 s, ISO 1600, paralactic mount.
