Nicely captured.
I don’t know about your end of the state but the clouds are starting to ramp up here in Albuquerque.
Stay safe...

Looks great!

I have to choose.
Stay up, or get up early.
I haven't been successful trying to do both.

So I think I'll try doing an alignment, then parking my telescope and mount, then getting up in the wee hours to try and catch some images.
Neowise... the movie.

I have so much crap in that direction. Power poles, wires, trees, neighbors light pollution....

OK, so I'm staying up. I expect to be able to slew to it by 03:30 Hrs. And it is going to be in line with the Moon, so I have that as a reference.
Right now, I'm on Mars for a reference.
Comet hunting.
Poop! It was a bust for me. No comet. Sky was plenty dark, but no comet in sight. I think too much light pollution to my ESE. Or Moon glare.
Coulda been, shoulda been.

Very nice shot. The comet came out great and stars are nice and crisp, I assume you where tracking at sidereal rate?
