Description

I photographed Comet /2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS) on June 3 during its travel trough Virgo. It looks a little lonely in the star field with no major objects around the trajectory, nevertheless impressive and subtle. I look forward to more photos in the coming weeks as the comet becomes brighter and moves to other constellations. Hopefully there will be another chance.
