Nicely done Leonardo. Hyades, Pleiades, California nebula and comet in the one view. You don't do much better than that.

Cheers

That's a beauty Leo. It's getting lower on our side and higher on yours. Can't it turn back for a few weeks?

Looks like fireworks. Great shot.

Beautiful image Leo. So much about this part of the sky that I like and to have Lovejoy in there topping it all off is something special. The colour in this really pops as well. Keep your great images coming Leo, been really enjoying them!
