Comet ISON visible to Telescopes in Early Morning

Comet ISON isn't bright enough to see with the unaided eye, yet.  But it is visible to telescope viewers willing to go out before dawn.  The comet is visible just a bit east of the planet Mars and M44 (The Beehive Cluster) and is starting to show a tail.

This article by Bob King (at Universe Today) describes where to point your telescope and includes some photographs by Alfons Diepvens.
