It's a tough one at the moment but things will be better soon. I've imaged it a few times beginning on 13 April but I had to get a high vantage point for the horizon. There's lots of burning off around here too so skies have been very smoky, making it even more difficult.
On Sunday evening in bright moonlit skies I briefly managed to see two relatively bright stars close to it (mag 3.7) through 8x42 binocs but couldn't see the comet. Then the stars sank further into the smoke and disappeared.
Pics from each night are attached - also a view showing the smoke on Sunday night (there are no clouds in this picture, just smoke layers!). The distant mountain protruding from the left is Mt Buffalo and I shot the comet as it was setting over that mountain.
Good luck!
Cheers -
