Comet Holmes2163 viewsComet Holmes 11-5-2007.
Comet Holmes has been known for more than a century. But a recent change has brought much attention. The comet’s brightness has increased dramatically.
This is a photo taken with a 75-300 Zoom Lens on my Canon Digital Rebel. Comet Holmes can be seen in the Constellation Perseus.
The bright star near the top of the frame is Mirfak, also called Alpha Persei. Comet Holmes is below and to the left. It appears as a fuzzy circle with a bright center.
There is some speculation that Comet Holmes may have been struck by a meteor, producing this large dust cloud which is being illuminated by the Sun.
