Holmes Update


Here is my latest attempt at comet Holmes. It was taken the night of November 24th. My first holmes picture was taken throught my 10" LX200 at f/10 with my Canon Digital Rebel XTi. This picture was taken through my Takahashi Sky 90 at f/4.5 and my SBIG ST-2000. Just to give you an idea of how much this thin has grown since it shot out it's expanding cloud of dust, the original image was taken at a focal length of 2500mm and this image was taken at 405mm. Pretty impressive!
