Better conditions tonight (Aug 26) meant that I could go to 25 second exposures (although these were close to saturation). This shot is 5 x 25 second exposures with the QHY9 + C8 Hyperstar. Over a degree of tail is visible in this view - however I could not find any trace of the comet in 15 x 70 binoculars.
