Along with being a professional photographer and a commercial drone pilot, I am also an avid amateur astrophotographer. Just after sunset this evening, I flew my Mini 3 Pro up to try and capture a glimpse of Comet C/2022 E3 ZTF. I wanted to image it in one of my telescopes, but it was already below my usable horizon. However, from 350 feet up, I was able to glimpse the comet, shining green in the north-northeastern sky - it is just over the horizon, to the right of the image. The tail was only partially visible, but conditions are expected to improve over the next two weeks, so I should have ample opportunities to image it again. Enjoy!DJI_0189-Edit-2.jpg
 
Very nice shot and I'm hoping to find a spot to capture it also. Is the only or best time to capture it right after sunset ?
