Had anyone on MN seen the comet? It’s supposed to be visible to naked eye this week.

Yes, we saw it last night about 1am. We live in a very dark area with little light pollution. You will need some good binoculars.

Yes. Went out 3 nights last week and again last night photographing it.
It's best seen with binoculars but is certainly visible with the naked eye if you are in an area of low light pollution.

Not a great picture but it gives you an idea. This was with 250x zoom.

@Betteliefsen @ColinKnocksTwoPence - thanks for replying. Great photo! Are you in UK?
What time is best? I’m in East Midlands and have some Celestron astral bins.
