Image Details:

The twilight sky was about to become totally covered by clouds when I tried another blind shot as a last attempt to capture Comet 12P/Pons-Brook. Thus, I got very surprised when I noticed I had captured it in spite of the very challenging conditions: 80% overcast sky and at 6° altitude only.
