This is my "newest" comet to date - discovered only last August (by the ATLAS survey system on Hawaii).
It's only 13th magnitude and quite low in the NW (in Cassiopeia), so I didn't know if I'd be able to detect it, particularly in the moonlight. However it's quite clear, and even showing something of a tail:

That's a stack of 42x 1-minute with the Mx716 camera on my C8 at f/3.5.
