Image of Comet C/2020 F8 SWAN on 2020 April 13 at 19:15UT using a Celestron C11 RASA f/2.2 and a Canon 60Da camera for a total exposure of 5 mins. Field of View 30'. North below.
A visual observation using 15x70mm binoculars gave a magnitude of 8.1, coma diameter of 4' and degree of condensation 4/9. Coma appeared less condensed and may have faded slightly since prior observation on April 11.
Comet may also be at risk of disintegrating!
