Details:
Tighter view of C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS) from Wednesday night. It's fading each day as it moves off, but still an awesome photographic target and a cool visual sight from a dark sky location.
I couldn't detect any hint of blue in the embedded ion tail. But there was a lot of green & red airglow in the way and it could be that subtracting that eradicated any subtler colors.
There were definitely lots of fun shell games going on with the dust tail and a little cup of turquoise at the lead edge of the coma. The fanned out anti tail makes the whole left side of the frame a tad brighter.
