Has anyone here seen it in person? I did yesterday evening, and I'll post pics tomorrow.

I saw it Tuesday Evening :D , it isn't as bright as they predicted, at 8,30 PM it about five degrees above the horizon. Binoculars are VERY helpful in locating this Comet.

Looking forward to seeing Comet ISON this November

What I saw was actually a contrail. Here are pics, though, of what I did see.

Cool! I remember seeing the Hyakutake in 1996 and the Hale-Bopp in 1997, but I haven't seen any comet since then.
