Re: [APML] The Summer Milky Way - 16mm

Hi Chris -

I agree.  An awesome lens indeed.  Its even pretty sharp wide open but I
prefer to stop it down.
There are five propacks of the Supra 400 in the fridge.  This should last me
for a while.
I'm looking forward to more of your shots with the lens.  Your sky up at
Happy Jack must be perfect for ultra wide field shots.

Chris
