Here's some shots from last night (18 July 2015) - comet, Moon & two planets is not something you see every day! The comet/Moon shot is a crop from the full frame - Canon 650D, 55mm lens, 4 x 10 sec, ISO 1600, F/5.6; 08:22, 18 July 2015 UT.

Visually C/2014 Q1 looked great through 10 x 50 binoculars despite the adjacent Moon. My estimate was m1 = 5.2.

Cheers -
