More of Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS

I'm still processing the camera shots of comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS that I took on Thursday from the church property in Westminster, but yesterday I noticed that the comet was high enough in the sky now to be visible from my home above the trees. So, I imaged it with my wide field ZS61 telescope and ASI533 camera. Later this coming week I'll image it with my EdgeHD11 to get real close and hopefully some more fine detail in the tail(s).
