i note many saying the comets tail is dropping off in intensity, and that may likely be the case for all i know, not having seen if for some days, .. but may be worth noting that, at least when i was still a cometchaser, it was often remarked on well known phenomena that comets appeared to dim when passing through milky way (in front of), (du to loss of contrast) and then people spoke of sudden (apparent) brightening once out the other side, altho that was usually in reference to less spectacular comets .. must be a factor in dimming just the same, even if is truly dimming
Colin, that is amazing all those sky (and space) phenomena in one pic - you have my vote!
