[APML] What was the most photographed? (was venus on film)

["Chris Schur" <cschur@therim.com>]

Which leads me to wonder - What WAS the most photograhed astronomical event
ever in recent times?  A bright comet?  Eclipse?  Venus transit?  How bout
that X27 flare Auroras?  Any thoughts?

What I'm finding so fascinating is how the same event can look so different
because of the individual photographer's eye, haze, clouds, fog, etc.....
definitely fun to see the shots being posted.  This has to go down as the
most photographed astronomical event ever.

Nice going Geoff!

with a 500mm f8 mirror lens on tripod. I had 6 frames left on a roll of Fuji
Provia 100F, which I finished before loading print film. The first images
are one of those, shot from Southport NC, about 5 minutes after the Sun
cleared the horizon, around 6:08 AM EDT... see:

post again when I finish, for those whom might be interested.
