Details:
It was my first trial ...
I used theskylive.com to see where was the comet.
Then I tried to find it with 8x25 stabilized binoculars. No success.
Then I used the heavy 11x80 Paralux Jumbo and found it much below than Jupiter and a just bit South !
Taking a picture was another challenge !
I used my Sony RX10-4 on a tripod, in manual mode, found the comet with difficulty and took a few shots.
