Thanks people, appreciated! :) It was close to Omega Centauri a few nights ago, but was raining here.

Thanks for posting the image Rob, reminds me of how I observed the comet last night and despite light pollution and moonglow the comet appeared to have a similar surface brightness but about 50% larger apparent diameter than 5128, always good to see different objects in the same field of view.

Excellent, was hoping someone grabbed this.
Had a go myself thru gaps in the clouds, waste of time :(
