Why not add to the NEOWISE list?!?

These shots were taken a few weeks back now...
The buoy says "Slow, No Wake" which I thought was ironic with the comet in the background hurtling through space with a massive dust tail

Lovely shots John.

Thanks Richard! (This is just down the road from you in Hullbridge, looking over the river to South Woodham Ferrers)

I wondered where you were when I saw you were in Essex. A lovely setting.

I went out to view the comet on the 14th of July at around 11pm using my Celestron 15x70 pro binoculars .

I located the comet right away and I could not believe how large and clear it was .

On the Wednesday I went to our local dark sky field with my grandson who took his new canon camera with him we viewed Jupiter and Saturn which were also  superb and first for my grandson.

We then searched for and located the comet and once again it was great  I took my 15x70 binoculars and my Meade etx90 telescope .

I then showed my grandson around the sky which by this time was really dark and clear ,I now have two new astronomers the fist is my eldest grandmaster and now my grandson

Now I know all my kit will eventually have good homes

Nice images and a very familiar view for me, I am an Essex boy too.

Funnily got my first Neowise view from Hullbridge looking towards South Woodham a while back now.

Ah nice. I went there twice. Once when it was more of an early morning comet and once just after it had moved more to the evening. This was from the boat launch ramp next to The Anchor.

I recognised the ramp, have many friends in Hullbridge and spent a lot of time in the past on the river here too.

I looked at Neowise just away from this spot at the next slipway along.

I know that ramp too, but usually from walking by it. I'm across the river in Woodham
