Geminid meets Lovejoy

On my first ever attempt at photographing a comet (Lovejoy, C/2013 R1), I was treated to a surprize visit by a Geminid meteor. I believe that the small 'fuzzy' at the left is Messier 13, the Great Globular Cluster in Hercules, but please correct me if I'm wrong...

Hey Bryan, thanks for the nice comment! (and it's always nice to hear from one of the old S&G gang!)

A superb and opportunistic capture, Greg.
