Hi All,

I caught this comet visually on Dec 26.65, unfortunately I found just
at the edge of thin clouds ~3 deg above horizon. I saw it only for
several seconds as small, condensed object, comparable to zeta Scuti:

Dec. 26.65 UT: m1=4.5: Dia=30", DC=8...20cm L (38x)...Piotr Guzik
(Krosno, Poland)

Best Regards
