In a later attempt I processed the image in Siril and Gimp and flatten out the background.
Maybe easier to see the comet then.
I have now learned more about the comet, when they first found it it had the name P/2010 V1.
After that it broke apart in several fragment.
It's a 5 year periodic comet and it came back 2015 when this photo is taken.
But now as many smaller fragment. It has a new name 332P/2016 Y2, each fragment has an index, A, B, C ...
When looking in the high resolution image above I can see an object that are a bit elongated, could it be the comet, I have made a mark on it.
Most of the fragments you need a Hubble telescope to see them.

Comet discovered 2010 and it has a 5 year periodic orbit. I had some difficulty to find positions for the comet and haven't find it on the photo yet. |

From CdC I made a map over the sky where the comet is and with the date and time when I took the photo. |
