Hi again Rob,

the shot from your album highlights the star chains you mention, as well as the group of stars in the Diamond Cross near the Southern Pleiades that can make it difficult to tell if it is the tail, or just the effect of that group. A similar thing happened with Hyakutake, and that tail was 90 degrees from the Milkyway!

Cheers

Coops
