This is a photo I took of C/023 A3  the evening of  10/20/2024  with an iPhone 13  using just the default settings.   It was shot through a home built 12 inch dob using a 17.3mm Delos EP giving a magnification of  87x.   The magnitude of the comet that night was   4.3  - via theskylive.com/comets.   I couldn't  see it naked eye, but it was easily visible through the finder.

Well done! I was hoping to do similar, although the weather and the comets location (often behind a house or tree) put paid to that! I did get a handheld wild field shot with my phone, so not all bad.
