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.
