I must report that here in Perth. Comet McNaught is a spectacular view heading towards the sun. The head is quite bright with its tail clearly seen with the naked eye. One person called with excitement, "I can see it with my own eyes" There were hundreds of people line up Welshpool Road heading to Lesmurdie., with cars line up along side the road (a place where you can see the whole of Perth). People standing on boulders and other high points to get away from the trees. Most with binoculars and many were pleased with the view. People on their mobile phones giving directions where to look. I helped one man and his two sons with their small 60mm scope. Watching him struggle as the telescope was pointing to the ground. I could see his frustration with it. I help him aim and focus it and through the 60mm Comet McNaugh was just awesome!
