Comet Neowise from Sparks Lake

Comet Neowise's heavenly appearance in mid-July gave me an opportunity for a Covid-safe photography outing in Bend's neighborhood. So, on a clear night I made the short drive to Sparks Lake and spent 4+ fabulous, star-filled hours waiting for the sky to sufficiently darken and the comet to set near South Sister.
