Description

Comet Hale Bopp taken sometime in early spring 1997 from suburban Nottingham. Pre-digital. Taken on film with a Cosina 35mm film camera. I can't remember what lens or film was used. Film was probably Ektachrome 200. Scanned some years later on an Imacon Flextight.

Update. Using the wonders of plate solving and planetarium programs I'm pretty sure this was taken on 24th March 1997 at around 20.00hrs. The field of view suggests I was using a 500mm mirror lens.
