I was at the Oregon Star Party all last week. Since this comet was bright enough to see in binoculars, a lot of people probably photographed it. I didn't have the ephemeris, but found it visually and pointed the 'scope at it. It was moving very fast and I had to reduce the sub-exposure time to 30 seconds to avoid trailing, since I'm not set up to track a comet.
