When comets stray close to Earth, it is always an event. It's rare that someone looks as huge as Hale-Bobb in March 1997. Unfortunately, I don't have a picture of him, but Holmes could also be seen with the naked eye for days in October 2007, even if he looked more like a "ball", because the tail was pointing away from us. Here I have a small collection of comets that came before my lenses.
