Visually, the comet was not seen naked-eye, but in 7x35 binoculars the head was bright and fuzzy while the tail was minimal, ~1 degree, and only with averted vision. Fortunately, the camera had no such problems, and I could trace the tail to at least 5 degrees. I've never seen such a narrow, sharply defined tail--in the wide shot it looked almost like one of the numerous satellite trails that I tediously removed by hand (it was one subframe only and couldn't use kappa-sigma removal--the closeup image built from many subs could use that technique).
