Thanks for the comments everyone!
Much appreciated! It is a very nice comet!
I have observed this comet for a few months, then one Monday morning early i went out to observe it and WOOHOO i was surprised to see it had a tail.
I sent of text messages to a few people telling them about it, but when i got to work the following morning i checked my emails and found someone on comets-ml had already noted it on Saturday afternoon my time.
I finished work on Saturday at 12pm, and the email was sent to comets-ml about 1:15pm the same day!
So i was unaware all weekend of the tail until i "discovered" it on the Monday morning......
It was a good feeling......
They are both great but personally I think yours is the more pleasing version.
Cheers
