@Hilly6times@barrabest It's because upper light winds spread them out.
And vapour stays in the air because of the cold temperatures.
This is all common sense.
It was great to see Comet 12p pons-brooks tonight low in the north west, easy to find if you star hop from mirach in Andromeda or hamal in Aries.
It's bright but somewhat hampered now with low lp
Very bright center with bright coma and quite a fan tail noticeable tonight.
With the big tides and big waves recently the tide made these cool patterns on the Strand. That and a few convective showers made for a nice shot yesterday morning at sunrise.

I took a trip to Sloughen Glen Waterfall today. it's been about 10 years since I last photographed this stunning location, so it was nice to be back.
The waterfall was in full flow this time with all the rain recently.
