There are a lot of photos of Comet Tsunchinshan-ATLAS right now,
Around October 12 it was seen again, it is already in a position that can be seen again, but the right time to see it is at least in the northern hemisphere it is shortly after sunset, there is a margin of about 15 - 20 minutes these days that increases over time.

The tails of Comets are actually two, they have two tails, the one of ions and the most visible one, which is the one of dust and fragments that it releases because it always points in the opposite direction to the sun, since they are pushed by the solar wind, but the anti tail pointed towards the sun, the anti tail is formed by larger dust particles and larger fragments that are less affected by the pressure of solar radiation and tend to remain approximately in the orbital plane of the Comet and eventually form a disk along the comet's orbit, due to the speed of ejection of particles from the comet's surface.

It is curious that all this that the comets leave behind, in the end when the Earth crosses that trail of particles left by the comets, is when the meteor showers are formed.
