RE: [APML] First Medium Format - TSP 2005

Hey Robert,

 

Thanks for the feedback.  I shot the image early Friday morning sometime between 3:00 and 5:00am, after the thunderstorm passed through.  It was humid as heck but everything cleared out nicely after the rain that night.  I was setup with Steve Barkes and some others at the north end of the central field.

 

All the best,

Dave

Hi Group,

I've been shooting a lot of DSLR AP over the past year or so but I recently made an acquisition that brought me happily back to film.  I picked up a used Pentax 6x7 and 105mm lens for doing wide field work at this years Texas Star Party.  Although the weather was the worst in recent memory, I did manage to squeeze in a few hours of quality Milkyway time last Thursday night and have processed the first of the images.

Wow!  Which end of the observing field were you on?  Where I was at certainly didn't have skies that looked like that!

Not a single image I took from Tuesday through Friday was free from a passing cloud.

Good looking results.  Congratulations.
