The Comet of 2024
C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan was the comet of 2024, even if it wasn't quite as bright as predicted.
On October 15, I got in the car with my friend to drive towards the NE. The sky was supposed to be fairly clear there after sunset. On the eastern shore of Lake Ratzeburg, other photographers could be seen already waiting at the side of the road.
Before the clouds rolled in, we had 20 minutes to photograph the comet. Dusk was not yet over and the almost full moon was already 15° high in the sky.
