Notes:  This comet is exhibiting the most obvious dust trail I have ever seen in 50 years of imaging.  The background here is filled with integrated flux nebula, and on the original luminance data, a short tail was seen at about a 45 degree to the trail.  Easily seen in 10 x 50 binoculars.  Bortle 1, 7000 feet elevation.
