Just ten days after discovery of comet C/2018 V1 (Machholz-Fujikawa-Iwamoto) has reached magnitude 8 and has developed a long ionic tail with two degrees length, barely visible toward northwest in this wide field image taken on November 16, 2018. At same time it shows a rather other dust tail towards west. The comet was located very low over the horizon and will be unobservable soon.
