The shadow in lower part of this picture is the mountain ridgeline of Mt. Yatsugatake. A straightened ion tail is spilling out of the view flame of a 80 mm-photo lens. After this, the comet Hyakutake set in the west sky sticking in the Mt. Yatsugatake; I could appreciate the ion tail stretched from the mountain for a while.
