Monkey head Comet ?

Hi every one, last Thursday night I was testing my

ccd camera with different lenses, to see how they performed

I did not bother to turn the cooling on as it was more about

star shapes and angle of view more than anything.

I was going through the data and I noticed a green something

that should not be there.

The subs were taken with the qhy8l, 7 subs were 12 minutes

the last two were 15 minutes 60mm lens was used.

does any one know what comet this is, well i think its a comet.

I have tried to find out information about comets that are around but

could not find anything.

At a rough guess the core of the comet is around mag 8-9

Does anyone have any ideas what comet this is.

I have put the sequence of subs together and made it into a short movie

on youtube

the images are noisy as no cooling and very streched and rough processed

Paul.
