Stunning shots as per usual Joe!
I had an old fellow in town just saying to me when I was down the local plaza 20 minutes ago a friend of his was trying to find the comet. I mentioned binoculars are good to locate it but he thought it was the street lighting causing the issues, possible if he's in town but we also have mountains directly west (and a lot of trees from my place) which I'm guessing is why I can't locate it from my place, that or I'm just too stupid.......
Plus we have a constant state of cloud locally, doesn't help and though it has been clear early AM on several nights it's also while I'm in bed sleeping (I notice when I go to the toilet through the night the sky is clear (through a toilet window, I don't use my yard)).
I had someone offer to pay me if I can get the planetary alignment locally but again, our skies are very clouded. I explained using a wide angle lens to try and get 5 or 6 planets in one image they will only be small bright dots, even tracked.
That's not how the media have made it look.
