McNaught, 7th June, 2010
The most bright comet at this moment at the night sky. Taken on 7th June, 2010 at 1.50 am LT from Bohor, Slovenia, Europe. It was spectacular show this morning. I was actually observing the rise of this comet. Though I wasn’t able to see it with the naked eye because of low latitude, it’s very bright object!
