Very nice.
After envying all the folks in AZ now its time for NV.
Hate the marine layer and low cloud in LA. Missing the comment again tonight due to heavy low clouds.

Very nice, I like the moon and mountain to give it a little perspective.

I've got to say for all the expectations I had been reading on this one, I couldn't see it without the help of the camera lend.

I have to use a strong binocular to see the comet, it was later under navigational twilight that I can see it on 400 mm on &D then 200 on 5D2.

Last image looks like a big gorilla sneezing a comet!
Love you moon in all images with that beautiful Earth shine.
