Comet C/2020 F8 (SWAN) imaged on May 18, 2020 at dawn, just 6 degrees above horizon. Despite be magnitude 6, it was not observable through binoculars due to twilight and the dense atmosphere at this low height viewing, but the photograph managed to register it with its characteristic green color in the constellation of the Triangle.
