Hello all,Further to Nick's message yesterday on this discussion list news has appeared on comet-ml of a post perihelion recovery image taken by Ajay Talwar on November 19, 2015 @ Devasthal Observatory, Uttarakhand, Indian Himalaya. The image can be seen at this link:http://spaceweathergallery.com/full_image.php?image_name=Ajay-Talwar-Catalina-Edit2_7977-ann-circle_1447946316.jpg&PHPSESSID=mr2reaucm829uv3reldescelm4
A comment by Thomas Lehmann on the same comet-ml is as follows:"Dear Ajay,
Congratulation to the first post-perihelion image of this comet!
I did a rough estimate of the total coma magnitude from your image:
m1 = 6.8+-0.5 mag
Seems the comet looks healthy and is ready for us northern observers.
I'm waiting for clear skies ...
Thomas"
So the scene is now set for observations of this comet from the northern hemisphere.Denis Buczynski
