Panstarrs spotted 20 July 2015
Visually it is 5th mag or fainter, so didn't show up in the finder. I traced the main tail to 1/2 to 3/4 deg, with a 8" Newt at low power. Followed it as it set behind a low hill. Here is a stack of 35 4sec exposures (no tripod) at f2.8 ISO 1000 with 50mm ziess T* 50mm lens on a Canon 40D. I used deep sky stacker. Bias and darks used. This is a small crop.
