Holmes comet 3.5 days after the outburst
The weather was bad in Brno after the comet Holmes outburst and the weather prospects for the
following days were bad as well. That is why Dalibor Hanžl traveled westwards until he found a good
observing place. It was the foot of the Arber hill in Germany not far from the Czech border. His
images are the earliest in this Holmes comet series. I processed these images two years after Dalibor had
taken them.
