Comet Siding Spring - Captured September 29

A single 3 min exposure captured last month and only now processed using MaxIm and PS.
I had taken quite a number of exposures and was very impressed to see that I had my polar alignment close to the mark as there was very little in the way of movement in tracking adjustments with PHD (haven't figured out how to use PHD 2 yet) however..... I wasn't so impressed when I stacked all the images and found an ugly white streak across the final image
It was only after going back and flicking thru my single images to see what I had done wrong that I realized how far the comet had moved to cause that streak during my imaging session
