The comet only 3,5 degrees over horizon. Newton 900mm f4.5,Sony a73   

Because of the dusty layers in the flat plains I have to move up to 2200m osl. The seeing in direction 'Wilde Kreuzspitze' was really good but it was a hard work to catch the comet only a

few degrees over horizon (lowest 3.0°). Newton 900mm f4.5, Canon 200mm f3.2, Sony a73,a63.

 'Clear sky' over Germerswang (South Bavaria)

 Very good conditions up to 12° over the horizon even near Munich allowed these images of the comet to be taken.

*mag  = > light magnitude: Up to mag +3 or +4 stars are visible nearby cities with the naked eye, in very dark areas the seeing limit can reach up to mag +6-7.

The more higher numerical value is given, the more weaker are the objects. E.g. - 4,7 mag, Venus glittering; - 1,0 Sirius, brightest star; + 3,5 M31 Andromeda, pale shiny oval)
