Details:
On Christmas night, the comet was very low on the horizon from the town of Bacau Romania. At 10 degrees above the horizon it was difficult to get more than 35s of useful material so i patched up an animation of the apparent movement of the comet during an hour. I compressed this in aprox 10s in the video on vimeo. In the negative picture you can see a bit of the ion tail. Weather went bad one day after so in the animation you can see very turbulent air if you examine the stars. Animation here https://vimeo.com/115370218
