ASTRO: Finally my 17P/Holmes catch!

Ok, finally some clear skies here. Not for long but managed to take 34 shots
of Holmes and stacked them manualy. My scope is on a EQ2 mount and no motor
so to be honest, I am rather pleased with the result :-)

Bynostar 130-900 Newton, 40 mm eyepiece, FujiFilm S5500 hybride camera,
eyepiece projection. Stack of 34 JPGs, ISO 400, 1 sec, f/2.8.

Question: the star that is just out of the middle of Holmes ... is it a star
or is it the nucleus?

Menno, That's the nucleus. It was easy to see last night in my 20x80
binoculars and even easier to see in my friend's Celestron C-5i using a 16mm
Nagler.
