Just a short note to say that this comet is exhibiting very stable, uniform  
behaviour as it moves away from perihelion. The nucleus is now 10th  
magnitude and fading further. A wide-field image from the night of April  
29/30 shows a fan-shaped tail about 1 degree across as per the following  
image, where cometary dust can be seen reflecting sunlight across the entire  
leftside of the picture.
