Great images Pete et al
It certainly is a lovely sight! I've just had another glimpse before the clouds rolled in here in Cambridge. Even the school I went to today with the planetarium were well impressed that they may be able to see a comet! Isn't astronomy Brilliant! Cheers Andy Mr Andrew R Green B.Sc(Hons) FRAS.

I don't have any high ground to the east of me The real-time astronomy program RTGUI now has a feature to easily get comet and asteroid positions over the internet. Just click on "Get Comet/Asteroid", and enter "C/2006 P1". You'll get positions for the next 60 days. When you've entered your latitude & longitude, you'll then have exact altitude, azimuth, rise, and set times for the comet, for whatever time you choose. Can also use gor "Goto". http://www.rtgui.com Robert |

I will try to view it here tonight, but I think the cluttered horizon/cloudy weather will frustrate my attempt. Thanks to everyone who has shared photo links. Steve outside Chicago |
