    Comet over the Ortega's

    By lvi56  |  Posted March 13, 2013  |  Lake Elsinore, California
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     lvi56 snapped a picture of the Comet PanSTARRS over the Ortega Mountains in California. He says it was barely visible to the naked eye and appeared as "a little orange fuzzy spot." Instead, he used binoculars and his camera to pick it out. "I love astronomy and find astrophotography a good challenge," he says. "I was very excited to capture the comet next to the Moon. Never photographed a comet before!"
    - PM91, CNN iReport producer
