Moon meets comet

I have to admit that was an awesome and unforgetable experience to watch a comet an night sky. Through the telescope the view was more impressive. For this second shootout I decided to go to Paliovouna the biggest mountain-volcano in my area, although the top was closed due to works (airturbines) the view and the scenery little meters below were unique! The moon was setting and the comet was rising and I was lucky enough to saw both of them in the sky. But, unfortunately it wasn't possible to caught them in a single shot. So this pic is a composition. Don't forget to mention the flare at the up right, lucky enough..
This solar traveler will visit our planet again in 6700 years, so you can see it until the end of the week!

I hope that I will have again a chance in my life to see and photograph a comet again. 🙏
