Hi Alfi,

Sorry to rain on you party, but the bright object in the picture is not a magnitude 10 comet. That would be much dimmer and should show some proper motion against the stars.

The comet may well be in the image, I looked but couldn't find it, it may be too dim to be seen past the light pollution though.

Comets usually show up green in DSLR shots.

Cheers
Stuart
