Holmes comet 81 days after the outburst
This image of Holmes comet was made in Chile on the southern hemisphere during our two-member
mountaineering expedition (me and my wife Zuzana). I had only a small tripod therefore I used only
short exposure times (10 s) in order not to blur the image by sky motion. Excellent observing
conditions in Andes enabled me to make rather good image even with very limited equipment.
