Lovejoy Comet through binoculars

On the northern horizon the comet E2 Lovejoy is zooming through Aquila. Its current magnitude is about 7.6. You can easily see it with your 10x50 binoculars. There should be a fuzzy dot close to Lovejoy comet, though it moves from night to night significantly. By the end of this week Lovejoy will reach its peak in brightness, so these days are the best time to look at the comet with your astronomical binoculars.
