I wish I had checked a couple of days ago (NE view) .. Found I should be
able to see it out my bedroom window between 2:30 am and dawn ..
I've been getting up very early these days.. usually around 5 am.. from
googling.. It's been getting brighter .. and we are having clear skies
here in the baked apple. Ashley may have already seen it, as she has a
perch at the little window which she goes to just before sunrise..
I can't get right up to it without risking a fall.. there is a bureau
under it. will give it a try timorriw morning

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.

I’m motivated to go out and scream at the overcast that rolls in an hour
before sunset every night and sticks around until after sunrise.
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).
