Details:
The comet is now classified as "Southern Hemisphere object" so being as far South as possible helps. At about magnitude 4.5, it was visible for about an hour in a small (6X30) finderscope between 6:30 and 7:30 PM, before setting behind distant trees to the SW. The attached photo is a stack of some images taken through my 9.25" Celestron SCT at f/10.
