C/2020 f8 swan

Another early morning saw some cracking comet views through binocs and dob depite, again, high cloud and LP.

Tried to get a wide field as well as the C6 view to get an idea of the length of the tail. Well, b1 and b2 Aquarii were about 12 degrees away so I reckon there's an easy 10° worth of tail there...see annotations
