I'm shooting several more mosaics of Comet Holmes tonight and continue to pick up an odd "something" growing out of the coma to the NW every time I image that same spot. Very narrow and about 12-14' long. Looks like a satellite trail with "nebulosity" spread out around it. I can't remove the camera to look through the scope and I can't see the "whatever-it-is" in 11x80 binos so I'm guessing it might be an internal reflection. But then again, maybe it's not. Anyone seeing anything like I'm describing tonight? patrick
