Recent magnitude estimates indicate that this comet is not brightening very quickly and latest estimates put it around mag 9. It will get increasingly difficult to observe as its elongation decreases but please try to get more images and estimates as it heads in to perihelion. There is a good set of images in the Comet Section archive.
