The Green Comet

Here it is, Comet C/2022 E3ZTF, the 'Green Comet', as viewed tonight from the Sunshine Coast. It's not actually very green. Except in a long-exposure photo through a powerful telescope. But through binoculars, or in a photo taken with a mobile phone, like this one, it's a very faint fuzzy patch. Like a lot of comets in fact. That's just how it is, sorry!
