Best display to date!

Sorry poor quality photos, but managed to catch these about 2:25am, far too much cloud got in the way.  Managed to watch the comet for quite a while through my binocs, again when cloud wasn't in the way. Drove over the opposite side of the hill and had a look at Jupiter and saturn. Called it a night about half three, thoroughly enjoyed myself.

Special night got the comet and NLCs in same shot but have to process all of those tomorrow will leave you with one off the back of the Camera for now 

[Hirudine]

I was tardy, so this was all I could see, along with Neowise. Still, can hardly complain, probably the only time I'll get to see noctilucents, a comet, several planets, and the moon, all at once in my lifetime!

[Rush2019]

I really need to invest in a camera.  Loving all the photos everyone posts.

Nope, i was sober... its a glitch with my (new) phone... for some reason i cannot post comments from it where the signals weak...despite it being a samsung s20 5g !

seems it was a back loaded evening, with nlcs appearing in the pre-dawn slot .

[Paul Sherman]

A few of the hundreds I took between 130am and 330am and finally crashed into bed at 430am Zzzzzzzz

First one NLCs and Comet Neowise

Second one was when the NLCs were showing off 

Pictures taken on the Dengie Peninsular in Eastern Essex a new scouting mission was partaken this week to find some foregrounds etc

Like this one at the end of the night at 315am

[DanN]

Nope not a whiff of Thunder in the Cone or Triangle yesterday back to normal it seems lol

[mushymanrob]

Interesting, ive just viewed closely a few random sky pics from last evening, and i spy the comet! Ok i know its best seen before dawn but using capella and comparing photos showing both, i captured a faint image of the comet.

Thats good, im out tonight to see the comet, i might not see nlcs but if i can see it before 2am ill be happy! 

[Arnie Pie]

Edit; Oops forgot the words... That worked out well a great display of Noctilucence and an obliging Comet

Unfortunatly the NLC`s didnt show up till 2 am.....exactly in the area where the Comet had tracked only hours earlier.  They stuck around for a couple of hours and showed some lovely detail
