CommentNaked eye DC = 8/ Low clouds suddenly there has been a gap and I hurried to the balcony - watch the comet. Perseus was close to the zenith - at about 80 degrees, which caused some inconvenience to the observations, given the balcony. Tool - BPC 7x50. I will mention some features. Core, compared with last observation stands out less clearly, and the whole comet in general, it seems somewhat dimmer. Border coma not entirely clear, but quite certain
