Comet lemmon's Ionic and Dusty Tail in the Moonlight

Hi
Comet Lemmon continues its journey through the Solar System, reaching perihelion on November 8, 2025, when it will be 0.53 astronomical units (79 million kilometers; 49 million miles) from the Sun.
It is now barely visible in clear skies, away from light pollution, in the constellation of Ophiuchus.
This image is part of a time-lapse taken on October 26, 2025, in clear skies, away from light pollution, in the Rivash Mountains, with a 4-day moon in the sky.
Comet Lemmon made its closest approach to Earth on October 21, 1404.
