Comet C/2020 F3 (Neowise)
Not a lot of comets are or will be visible in this century to the naked eye. C/2020 F3 is one of those. It is one of the brightest comets visible to observers in the northern hemisphere since comet Hale–Bopp in 1997. C/2020 F3 is also conveniently called Neowise. Its name is a credit to the space telescope that detected the comet in March 2020 (even if this is not very precise, as more comets detected by this satellite are called Neowise).
Despite the bad weather in July, I was lucky enough to get this shot of Neowise just before sunrise.
