I observed C/2007 N3 LULIN in Saggitttarius last night.
Very small and at about 12 mag was still quite noticibley moving against the background stars.
13mm Nagler in a 40cm scope.
I was unable to observe it in the 20cm, and only just observed it in the 40cm with a 30mm eyepiece.
This comet has the possibility of getting brighter in the future?
No tail was visible

Nice obs Ron! Lulin is predicted to reach mag 6 or 7 in February 2009. It was reported to have brightened suddenly to about mag 10.6 in late June, but has dimmed off since. Definitely one worth watching!
