Comet Hale-Bopp, 5-15-97

Capture date : Fri May 27 08:28:16 2005
Location : Photo taken from my observing site at home in Fitchburg.
Camera info : This photo was taken with a 12" lens on a Graflex 4x5 camera with a 6x7cm roll film back. The exposure is approx. 10 min. shooting over street lights and other parking lot lights without any filtering.
Other info : I hope all of you who view this photo enjoy it as much as I do. I had intended this to be a tracked photo but found that the GEM I was using had bottomed out in RA so the camera stopped for the duration of the exposure.

Take a good look at the photo and you will have to realize that there is a serious question you have to ask about it. Most of the people I show this one to never mention the problem, almost entirely ignoring it until reminded or maybe they are just being polite. Tell me what you see. Thanks.
