Comet And Noctilucent Clouds

This is Comet NEOWISE (C/2020 F3) over Deadhorse Lake near Hussar in southern Alberta, taken just after midnight on July 10-11, 2020 during its evening appearance. The comet shines just above low noctilucent clouds. The slight wind ruffled the waters enough to prevent the clean reflection I was after. See a wider angle view in the second image.

Photo-Composite. This is a blend of nine exposures for the ground stacked to smooth noise and the water, with a single exposure for the sky, all 4 seconds with the 135mm Canon lens at f/2 and Canon 6D MkII at ISO 1600, with long-exposure noise reduction employed on this warm night. Stacked and masked with Photoshop. Topaz DeNoise AI applied to the sky.
