A more formal presentation of the image data I captured the evening of March 16, 2013 (Mar 17, UT.)

Below is a another version with inset images.  The inset on the right is a full-frame, high-contrast negative view showing one of the ion tails and the fuller extent of the dust tail.  The inset to the left is an isophote  negative close-up view of the central condensation.
