this was not easy to capture, briefly tried myself but no good. You have done very well.
(although you must have nearly cried when you saw Joh's image)

Nice shot and good capture. I understand the "exit" part of it, thanks to your title, otherwise, it seems more of an "entry" to me (though I know the comet didn't actually "enter") because of the way it is framed.

Great capture! Too bad the trees are distracting me from an otherwise incredible comet in the sky image.

Little too dark in the sky - there's another comet image in the challenge that's just that bit better.

The best of the comet shots I have seen this last week.

Saw the same picture already with better composition. Good idea. Depth of field is too shallow for my taste. Whatever that horizontal line is below the comet is very distracting. Nice though.
