Image of comet C/2020 F8 (SWAN), obtained on 2020 May 27 (20h48-21h00UT) in moonlight and twilight conditions
with 20-cm, f/5 telescope and Canon 6D DSLR. Exposure time was 20x30s at ISO 1600. Total exposure time 10 minutes.
Image scale is 4.48 arc sec/pixel. Field size is 1.24 x 0.89o. The comet was only about 8o
above the horizon, but thanks to very transparent sky clearly visible, though it has apparently desintegrated and
faded, while passing perihelion on May 27.
