Comet Helin-Roman-Alu 1 (2005) 10 inch scope

Hi all
Last night I went for Comet Helin-Roman-Alu 1 (2005) with the 10 inch, after inadvertantly capturing it in Berts lens while imaging the Helix Nebula a while back.
Image is 50 minutes total ,10x5 mins ISO 400, no nebula filter. 10 inch f5.6 scope, modded 350D camera, hand off axis guided. The aligning of images was done on the comet, hence the trailed stars due to the comet's movement over the 50 minutes. There is a number of galaxies around that area too.
