Details:
Pons-Brooks on March 19 and today, same equipment and settings. As the head was almost stellar (Ra, 200mm, 20s exposures, f2.8), I assume there was/is an outburst. Estimated the comet for 3,5 mag (but not precise estimation, many too much excited one). Definitely worth taking a look in the next hours/days. And gives more chances to capture the comet's head during the upcoming total solar eclipse over Mexico/US/Canada.
