 Hi all,
My observations of 29P on Aug 2 and 3 UT with my 40.6 cm f/6.8 SCT show the same morphology as outlined by Nick James.  No sign of any features in the coma.

 And here's mine. The inner coma looks symmetrical to me with a brighter 
fan to the east but nothing particularly unusual. My photometry give 
about 16.05 in a 5.7 arcsec aperture so again nothing unusual.

It will be interesting to see whether this turns out to be real or not.

Nick.
