Halloween Comet Holmes


I took this photo of Comet Holmes and Melotte 20 (the Alpha Persei Star Group) on October 31.

Comet Holmes is bigger than the Moon in this photo when you include the bluish outer coma.

Pentax K1000 camera, 100mm@F/2, Fuji Superia Xtra 800 film, 1 1/2 minutes.
Click on the photo to enlarge for the best view.
