    I could see Neowise pretty clearly from my window last night.

    Could you spot the comet from where you live?

    Pretty much 100% cloud cover forecast here until the middle of next week.

    Good photos :thumbsup:

    From home too -- I have to go over 1km to get out of the street-lights.

    Wow that’s a beautiful shot!

    Mine was in the Netherlands.

    Finally cleared up here in Seattle - kept our kids up until almost 11p to take a look. My 8yo was fascinating with seeing it with both the naked eye and thru binoculars. This shot was taken just up the road from our house at an Alki Beach overlook.

    That's my blurry 5512 in the foreground. 3sec shutter isn't conducive to a good wrist shot...

    Dang, y'all are lucky. I'm at the wrong latitude and got too many trees in the way to see from my house. But, Jupiter, Saturn, and Mars are looking pretty great right now. I think Jupiter was up to mag 2 last night - so bright!

    Just finished viewing. Beautiful! I didn’t bring equipment to photograph it, so here’s my watch while I was waiting.
