11 incredible shots of NEOWISE over Minnesota

The KARE 11 community has been beautifully capturing the NEOWISE comet lighting up the Minnesota sky.

MINNEAPOLIS — We already knew the KARE 11 audience was full of talented photographers, but the rare presence of the NEOWISE comet has really hammered that home. Here's a sampling of the shots we've collected through our That's So Minnesota Facebook group, text messages to KARE 11 and through the KARE 11 app. 

Haven't spotted the comet yet? Make sure you do before July 23, when it'll fade from view for 6,800 years.
