After reading multiple stories, and seeing photos of it, I wanted to try and take my own photo of Comet Tsuchinshan–ATLAS. I had to miss the first several nights it was visible due to other commitments and I hoped that there would still be a clear night sky under which to photograph it while it was visible. Its brightness is fading each day as it travels further away from Earth and the Sun. Astronomers say it will be visible again in 80,000 years, if it survives its travels around our solar system.
Finally, I had my chance. I walked up the hill next to our house and was able to locate the comet quickly using Venus as a reference point. I made several compositions from different vantage points and settled on this one as my favorite.
