In this the results from the observations of the comet C/2007 N3 (Lulin) were presented. The comet was observed at 23 and 24 February 2009, when it was at its closest approach to the Earth (at geocentric distance Δ=0.411 A.U.). For the observations the 2m Ritchey-Chretien-Coude Telescope at the Bulgarian National Astronomical Observatory Rozhen equipped with 2-channel focal reducer and a set of narrow-band filters and grisms were used. This combination was used for obtaining narrow band images and low dispersion spectra of the comet's coma. The images were investigated for jet-like structures with radial image enhancement filter and significant structures were detected.
