All were taken with my N-8008 Nikon film camera. The last was an experiment with my 500mm lens with a doubler attached making it a 1000mm. It is not great quality but is a closeup of the comet. The grain on all the shots is the result of the ASA 1600 film I was using.

Blast From The Past
I was going through a box of "stuff" and discovered the slides I took of the 1997 comet Hale-Bopp! I ended up with ten usable shots out of two rolls of 35mm film I took one night. It was great to find them.
