Smaller spots come and go in days. The large ones stay.

Comet C/2020 S3 meets Venus. Changi beach. Despite the high clouds and the sky light (near sunrise) plus light pollution, the comet does not disappoint thanks to its brightness!

Re: Mars and other solar system objects 2020
A trip down TMCR is fully worth it. Departed home when the skies were not cleared, and reached the so-called sunrise view point that finds the skies towards east getting clear. How lucky!
Shot a number of exposures until the sky brightened too much around 06:05AM.
Back home to stack the exposures and found out the coma and the tail are both visible. For the first time ever!
