Geez Terry your sure can pick them!:thumbsup:
E4 has brightened quickly around mag 9.5., The coma is asymmetric and very green. It is also showing a tail, see inset, single 45 sec exposure. I think the Northern hemiphere is going to have another good comet.

Cheers,
Justin.

G'day Justin,

Good capture. It must be pretty low in the morning sky from your latitude. Should be an interesting one to follow. Terry certainly has a gift for finding them.
