Comet C2023 A3 Tsuchinshan–ATLAS wrap up and an aurora fail

Stacked my comet images to see if i could pull out the anti-tail...no luck :( though you can see a bit more of the tail, especially to the right compared to the single frames.

Lastly I took a "shot in the dark", trying to catch the 10/10/24 aurora from my backyard in east bluff.  no hint of the aurora (not unexpected being just south of John Wayne airport).  made some star trails for fun:
