Hi Ben,

I've aligned on the background stars with this one. The comet is moving slowly enough that the final image is not too bad except for the doubled and smeared nucleus.

In other images I've stacked on the comet, stacked on the stars and combined, but I'm rarely happy with the finished result and still experimenting.
