Re: [APML] conjunction on Velvia 100F

John & Chris, thanks.  John, I think this film may work good on star trails 
just like the Provia.  I'm going to give it a try in a couple weeks.   It 
should work for the witch too, probably good for the reflection nebula 
around the Pleiades also.  Let us know if you try it on the witch, 
Halloween's just around the corner <g>  Chris, I know what you mean about 
the Provia, it's a great film.  I really wonder what the difference is 
between the two.
