Comet 13P/Olbers was magnitude 7.0, a little brighter than a week ago when it was magnitude 7.3. Michael Jaeger has a wide field of view image of the comet from 2024 August 6 that is simply a wonderful image of this comet, he thought the comet had brightened briefly on August 6 and is now fainter again on 2024 August 10. Take a look on the German Comet Group Site at his images.
