False-color image of comet Hale-Bopp, taken on 1997 Jan. 17.203UT (start) with the 20-cm, f/2 Baker-Schmidt camera, R-filter and ST-6 CCD. Exposure time was 2 minutes. The frame field of view is 1.2x0.9 deg.

January 16, 1997
Wide-field mosaic image of comet Hale-Bopp, taken on 1997 Jan. 16, with the 2.8/180mm lens, CCD and narrow-band H2O+ filter, centered at 620nm (FWHM=10nm). Two consecutive frames were taken between 5:12 and 5:22UT. Each frame was exposed for 5 minutes. Morning dawn slightly interfered. Due to viewing geometry, the gas (PA ~345o) and dust tails (PA ~190o) are widely separated and about ~2 deg long. The frame field of view is 3.5x3.3 deg. North is at the top, East to the left.
