The weather at the Alnitak telescope in Spain has not been too good the last few nights but I did get an image of the comet from Chelmsford yesterday morning. The comet is now moving away from the Earth so the physical scale is getting smaller but fragments are still visible. I’ll be preparing a report for the February Journal so many thanks to everyone who has submitted images.
The latest images in the section archive are here:

Most of these are north up so you can see how the tail has rotated rapidly over the past few weeks as our viewing angle has changed.
