APOD 3.3

Comet McNaught is a sensation in the astronomical community. Of the past six APODs, five have been about McNaught. The comet, the brightest in decades, is reaching the climax of its EPIC performance. This shot here was taken over Krakow, Poland. The comet's performance is coming to a close in the northern hemisphere, but will continue to dazzle audiences in the southern hemisphere as McNaught moves higher and highger towards southern skies.
