Catalina an interesting target

A quick image from Wednesday of C/2013 US10 (Catalina). It's circumpolar and 7th mag-ish, high in late evening, green and sporting two tails - one short and broad, and another longer and narrow. What's not to like? This comet might really reward a better imaging setup from a darker sky than mine too...

20 x 2minutes, ISO800, EOS 60D, 150mm Newtonian.
