Details:
I couldn't see the coma this morning naked eye as the sky became too bright by the time it rose, but the tail extended to over 15 degrees from where the coma was located, below my horizon, while the sky was still reasonably dark. On the photo it extends to about 20 degrees. A narrow band of cirrus across the middle of the tail was noticeable once the sky was becoming quite bright.
