Why would we treat your visual observations with derision! I want to see more visual observations and drawings in the Archive. If you have made some of this and other comets please send them to me and Nick.

I suspect however any observations I reported to the section would be treated with derision so I just wanted to see how they compared.

Owen,
I don't have any telescopic images and most of my telephoto images are
saturated on the brightest part of the coma.
Attached is a quick unsharp mask of the inner tail area showing the two
bright trails separated by a dark band.
I'm sure there must be some high res telescopic images out there. I
remember C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp) was a spectacular view in my 12-inch
Newtonian with amazing dust shells etc. Unfortunately this comet is just
too low for me to get to with the telescope.
Nick.
