Comet Tucker in that day has positioned in northern Pisces, almost same with that a week ago (Oct 16). The comet had shown me a coma with brightness of about 10th magnitude, a bit brighter than that of prediction. This picture has captured under Moonlit, but you can recognize an indistinct tail in south direction.
