(154,860 posts)1. Great catch, my dear Mousetoescamper!
I see, in the second photo, the comet and also Orion's Belt!
Beautifully caught.
And now, off to the Greatest Page!

Orion's Belt is out of the frame in the shots above, but the constellation's in this shot which was taken one minute later. The comet appears as three dots due to a longer exposure. The photos above are at 1/10 second; this one is a 1.3 second exposure. The familiar constellation Taurus is also in the shot. The bull's "horns" are the "V" shape above and to the right of the comet.
