[APML] conjunction on Velvia 100F

["Stan Richard" <stanrichard@hotmail.com>]

Hi all.  I haven't yet seen many images posted using this new film.  I gave 
it a try the other morning for the conjunction of the Moon, Jupiter and 
Mercury.  It seems very similar to the Provia, nice velvety reds and blues.  
Although the clouds moved in on me at the last minute mostly obscuring 
Mercury, they did add a nice texture to the image.  Note, this is pretty 
much straight from the scanner and it matches the slide pretty closely 
except for scanner noise.  I wanted everyone to see what the Velvia looked 
like raw.  I saved it as the highest quality jpg.  Now that I've seen what 
Tony can do, I'm not real happy with my scanner any longer.  Tony, there's 
another one coming your way :)    Comments always welcome.
