COMET HALE-BOPP

Fahnestock State Park, New York

April 4, 1997

Tony Hoffman: I photographed Comet Hale-Bopp from Fahnestock State Park, Hudson Valley, New York, April 4, 1997 at an AAA observing session.

The photo was taken with a 50mm SLR mounted on a fixed tripod and an exposure of about 30 seconds.

I took nearly a whole roll of photos of the comet that night, but this one really stood out. © 1997, Tony Hoffman.
