Details:
I tried imaging of the comet with a bigger scope before meridian passage at the night. Atmospheric turbulence was awful, and wind shook the scope badly. That aperture did not help showing details of the comet.
The tail looks bluish and a bit deviated toward east from the direction of whitish short dust tail near whitish coma on this frame. The faint and long tail toward southeast may be ion.
This comet is obviously rich in ion. She may show her ion more clearly, when she comes near to us. She may resemble Hale-Bopp, C/1995 O1, The Great Comet of 1997.
