Comet C2020 F3 (NEOWISE) & Noctilucent Clouds 2020-07-11 02.36 UT

            Pandy Park, Aberkenfig, South Wales
Lat 51.542  Long -3.593

I was very fortunate to capture this with some noctilucent clouds as an added bonus. Just a lightweight tripod and a compact camera. Then a walk of about 400 hundred metres or so from my home to get a favourable north eastern horizon. 

Final image very slightly cropped & levels & curves adjusted with G.I.M.P.
