Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS Over the Pacific

From the photographer: “Captured from Los Angeles, comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS) appeared just above the horizon as the sun dipped below the Pacific. It was a quiet, breathtaking moment—the solid, weathered pier framing the sky as the soft sound of the waves filled the air. The fleeting beauty of the comet against the vast ocean created a rare sense of calm, a reminder of the wonder that’s always above, waiting to be seen.”
