Details:
This comet despite not being very bright can be easily located by their apparent closeness to Venus these days. The image is taken with a telephoto lens of 300 mm f/2.8 on a small portable equatorial mount (Skywatcher Star Adventurer). It is an average of 30 exposures ISO 6400 25 seconds with a DSLR Sony A7s. Besides the filaments ejected near the comet coma is visible clearly disconnections from the ion tail shedding gaseous material like clouds.
