Hi all
Both these comets looked great last night. I observed them from a country location from 00.35 - 02.35UT. Trans= 7-8 semi dark sky with waxing crescent moon low in west dimmed by low level murk.
I could see both comets easily in my 8X22mm binos with component B very close to M13!!, C had a fairly easy long dust tail. Fragment C, M13 and B where all easy naked eye objects. B seemed easier to see than C tonight without any optical aid. These comets are brightening fast!!
Seen a lovely golden mag - 3 Lyrid meteor. Clouds moved in to end the session.
Clear skies

coruscations attending the whole length of the luminosity, giving to the phenomena the aspect of a wrathful messenger, and not that of a tranquil body pursuing a harmless course..comet of 1680
