C/2024 G3 Atlas from Arizona at near noon daytime.  January 12 starting at 10:44am MST ( 5:44 PM UTC), 10" f/3.9 Newtonian, 250 exposures each 0.03s combined onto  image in stack.  ASI083, Payson,AZ.  

The comet was 5 degrees from the Sun, and I used a special baffle tube system to block the sun from entering the tube.  the nucleus of the comet is singular, stellar and not breaking up as far as I can see.
