Beautiful dawn sky with comet!

Since I was up and about at 04.30, I decided to take advantage of a near-cloudless sky, driving out to a high point on the Heath with a clear eastern horizon. The Moon and Venus were a beautiful bright pair, while Orion, Jupiter and Taurus rivalled them for sheer impact! Interesting to watch a bright star in the constellation Cancer emerge from behind the Moon...

I could just make out Comet Nishimura in between a couple of thin cloud banks, managing a single photo before the sky clouded over completely...
