SW fragment C looks a little brighter tonight although I had trouble finding it hidden among a few 'bright' stars.

I managed a 426 frame image (about 17 minutes worth) through the 5.5" f3.6 Schmidt Newtonian and have rotated the camera to show the tail pointing upwards.

The moon is going to be a problem in a few days which will probably close this observing window for a couple of weeks.
