[APML] Planets - on a different time scale

["Bert Katzung" <katzung1@attbi.com>]

Since every one else has a fantastic scenic background to beautify their
planet shot, I thought I had better try something different---planet trails!
Cheaper than buying a ticket to England, Egypt, or the Yucatan.

Three hours is much too long for Centuria 800, but for this sort of thing I
think a magenta background gives it an other-worldly ambience that is kind
of appropriate. The Centuria is working quite well for the planet snap
shots---15 to 30 seconds at f3.3 .

Enjoy....
