Comet Helin-Roman-Alu 1 (2005)

Hi all
Just now, while looking over a deep image of the Helix nebula with Bert's Flourite 300mm f2.8 lens, I found this comet Helin-Roman-Alu 1 (2005) Even picked up its tail
I wasnt intending to image the comet, thinking it was too faint and far from the helix to worry about.
The image is 9x6 mins ISO 400 in skies as dark as it gets for Newcastle, with UHC S filter, modded 350D.
