Another pass at this beautiful comet.
My last chance to see the green comet before it flies away on its 50,000-year orbit was last night. Fortunately, a break in the clouds gave me the chance to capture it in the same field of view as Mars. Here are C/2022 E3 (ZTF) and Mars.

It's been gone for 50,000 years, but it's back. And it's green. Really green. C/2022 E3 (ZTF).
