Hello all,
Another souvenir from our solar system, comet C2022 E3 ZTF. Light pollution that night, i was unfortunately unable to observe details such as color, shape, etc. A beautiful white patch with a bright dot in the center.

Thanks for looking

Great sketch! As a non-sketcher, I'm always amazed by the skill and patience it takes to do these sketches. Congrats on your VROD recognition.
