Hyakutake came through just a few months after Hale-Bopp, and it was really a very spectacular comet. Not as bright as Hale-Bopp, but its tail grew to over 90 degrees in length across a large part of the sky. If I recall I believe I estimated it to be about 120 degrees long as it passed high overhead. Even while the comet was starting to disappear into the west, the tail was still long, just becoming dimmer to see.

I managed to image it from March 17 to April 21.

I scanned over 100 slides, color negatives and B&W negatives and these are some of the OK to best images. When stars are seen trailing it is because I was trying to track on the comet itself. It was moving rather quickly across the sky. I have put them in date and time order from the first images to the last. I do have a list of all the exposures I took but I have not yet come across the last images done on April 20 and 21.
