Oct 4

go to the skylive.com
under highlights click the name of the comet
on the next screen that come up pick a date. I used october 21st as an example
on the next screen that pops up enter your location at the top
on the bototm of the screen are some icons. click the clock symbol on the left.
set the time you want to check. i used 20:00 as an example
if you hover over the comet it will show you the altitude and azimuth the comet will be at .
if you point a camera with a fairly wide angle lens say a 50mm or so and shoot it you should have teh comet.

keep your exposure to 500/focal length to prevent star trails.
