Winter Milky Way Panorama... without the comet but with the clouds! 😅☄️☁️

            As the comet 12P/Pons/Brooks reached the limit of visibility with the naked eye, I wanted to capture an image of the comet with the whole arc of the Milky Way.

The weather had been supposed to be great, but unfortunately, the high clouds were on the radar, and I already knew it wouldn't be as clear as it originally should be. But despite that, I didn't hesitate, and I set off.

As you can see, the clouds are covering most of the sky, including the direction where the comet was (in the middle at the down edge). But what could I do? I tried my best and at least I have got this image with the real conditions, which can meet everyone during the shooting stars.

At least, enjoy the winter stars behind the clouds. It's time to say goodbye to this part of the night sky. As it's usual, I hope the next season will be better! :D

PS: I plan to share a video from this trip (in Czech). I will inform you soon in stories!
