A much bigger object tonight than our last clear skies here two nights ago, but a bit more diffuse and the yellow/orange color slightly less evident. Still, it was a spectacular sight with a 32 mm eyepiece in my 8" SCT (62X), with its distinctly stellar, point-like condensation in the center and the bright, denser area of the coma offset to the SSW still evident. And it remains an easy find for the naked eye.

What a remarkable object! It will be fascinating to follow its changes day by day.
