C/2017 K2 (PANSTARRS) 2022-Jul-28 Dan Bartlett

Probably last chance and a lucky one at that as C/2017 K2 moves too far south for my location. Shooting between the trees and the cabin I was fortunate enough to have outstanding clear and stable skies as the smoke from the nearby Yosemite fire drifted away from me.
