Explanation:
This scene would be beautiful even without the comet.
By itself, the
sunrise sky is an elegant deep blue on high,
with faint white stars peeking through, while near the horizon is a
pleasing tan.
By itself, the foreground hills of eastern
Slovakia are appealingly green,
with the Zadea hura and Vedkc hora hills in the distance,
and with the lights of small towns along the way.
Venus, by itself on the right, appears
unusually exquisite,
surrounded by a colorful atmospheric corona.
But what attracts the eye most is the
comet.
On the left, in
this composite image
taken just before dawn yesterday morning, is
Comet Nishimura.
On recent mornings around the globe, its
bright
coma and long ion
tail
make many a morning panoramic photo unusually beautiful.
Tomorrow, C/2023 P1 (Nishimura) will pass its nearest to the Earth for about the next
434 years.
