That's kind of the way it's been around here. Skies at my house are super clear, not a cloud in the sky. My chosen spot is about 12 miles west of here.

As soon as I get 10 miles west, it's apparent there's a band of thick clouds on the western horizon extending up to just about where the comet will appear. And even though they begin to dissipate once the sun goes down, there's a residual haze that makes it difficult to see & photograph.

Beautiful sunsets, but not what I came to see.

Guess I'll have to see what Photoshop can do to help clear up my images.

It’s quite annoying.

I’m pretty stoked about this panorama, I’ve got the comet, the Milky
Way, M31 and a meteor.

Last night I mostly worked on getting closeups of the comet, mostly at
10 seconds with astrotracer and playing with f-stops, ISO and using both
the 80-200 2.8 and the bigma.  For fun I also got some of Jupiter and of
M31 (Andromeda).
