Three images of 30 secs exposure each stacked with Photoshop with usual processing steps such as colour correction, curves, highlights etc. Final image cropped to make frame tighter

Image Details:

'Green comet' C/2022 E3 (ZTF) with the dome and spire of a temple in the foreground in the dark-sky location of Sambhar Lake in the north-western Indian state of Rajasthan. The comet did not have naked-eye visibility at the site, which is likely a Bortle Class 3 location, but was easily seen through a pair of binoculars. The shot was taken post moonset
