What sort of magnitude is the comet now? Double Cluster is around mag +4,how does it compare brightness wise to it?

Majority of reports on other forums reporting it as a binos object -not visible to naked eye?

Anyone viewed it recently?

Two great images there Paul. Shows colour and comet brightness (or lack of it :( ) nicely.

Nice for comparison to the DC Paul. Is that a meteor streak in the second one?
