Top stuff again Rob, to get the tail out to 33 degrees is still Very long. I shot at 1600 ISO with 4 minute exposures last night and 24mm lens at F2. Could see the tail on the rear view screen of the camera to well past Canopus. Did 3 Fov across to Sirius, but like you couldn't detect the tail near the MW.
Yes it is very faint, your inverted images Steve and Luis show the tail well. Mike, IMO any Moon, or stray light/pollution will make viewing the comet a no show. 80mm aperture binoculars should be a chance in dark skies, but the 20x magnification my yield too small a FOV to really show the comet. I have noticed on my images a very small scale shows the extent of the tail best.
All the best.
ps hope to have my image of last nights shoot up this evening.
