Comet 1995 O1 Hale-Bopp

Taken from Tucson Arizona on 7/28/1995 at 06:30 UT. C-14 @ f/11 using AX-2 CCD camera (KAF-1600) binned 3 x 3. Poor seeing and low altitude detracted from overall image quality. Image processed with IRAF - flat field imperfect since 60% of telescope aperature was obscured by observatory wall. Exposure time - 30 seconds.
