The clouds broke a bit before 5 AM this morning so I was able to grab a few shots of Comet Neowise from the Jordan Lake dam. I will probably go back Friday morning. It is possible to image the comet from the parking lot so I will be setting up my telescope there instead of carrying it 200 yards onto the dam. The only issue may be fog from the tailrace, but flow is low so mist production is also low.
The first image was part of a sequence for the video linked below. It is a crop from an image captured with a Nikon D5500 with a 50mm f/1.8 lens at f/2.5 (10 seconds, iso 200). The second image is a crop from an image captured with a Nikon D610 with a 300mm f/4 lens at f/4 (1 second, iso 1600)
