Some decade+ old Comet shots finally see the light of day.

Hale-Bopp:





I quite like how passing traffic lit up the corn stubble in the field for the foreground of the photo.

And not to mention Hyakutake:


1st Hale-Bopp & Hyakutake were shot with a Rolliflex TLR, with 75mm f/2.8 lens, on 120 Color Print Film.

The other 2 were shot with a Minolta SRT 202 & 50mm f/1.4 lens, on 35mm color print film.

Scanned with my new Epson V700 scanner. Fiddled with in Paint Shop Pro 8.

Hi Kevin,

I just bought a V700 as well and must say that I am impressed with it so far. I did discover that I will need a larger-capacity hard drive. smile
