heaven and earth

we finally saw the comet:



we've had a hell of a time laying eyes on it, between inconvenient clouds, much taller trees than we thought, and looking in the wrong part of the sky.

i've got a good crop of saffron this year. now all i have to do is harvest and dry it on time.



i think the phone's colors are a bit too saturated; i don't think the stamens are quite that eye-poppingly red.

We also finally saw it tonight!! Similar viewing challenges to yours, alas. We have scouted a location for tomorrow night that has considerably less light pollution (but is still much less than ideal) and will try to view again. And this time I'll remember my tripod.

all of that is amazing
