Details:
Managed to catch the comet just after clearing trees to my ENE.
Tail was splitting two rather bright stars, 3.8 MU Leonis and 2.9 Epsilon Leonis. 22 G Leo at 5.3 was nearby. This image: 20x16 seconds, Canon DSLR, 125mm.
The comet appears to be brighter than 5th mag., and was an easy target with 10x50 binos, but unable to find with unaided eyes due to moon and twilight.
