OK, a series of slides from goodness knows when, the slide mounts were not annotated unfortunately.

Started out as colour slides, but the moon is essentially B&W, so I converted in CS6 after scanning. It's a mere 4 shots from a series of about 20, taken at regular intervals, and likely with my old R7, and Zeiss refractor, at prime focus (840mm).

 

It shows the planet Jupiter approach and then pass behind the lunar disk. This was an hour or so perhaps before sunrise, and the sequence finishes with Jupiter exiting from behind the disk, in twilight or daylight.

 

Difficult to shoot? Yep, and even worse to "process". Digital has certainly made a huge difference to the ease of astro imaging, huge.

This is my wife's little cousin. We were visiting during the time where Nelly had her first day of school. We bought her this back pack and she liked it some much. She rolled it everywhere and even slept next to it in her bed.

Getting to the dregs of the bottom............Color is cool, I'm liking the color you get from the portra 400 and the Vewscan scans them so much better than silverfish

Thank you Adam.

Actually, it was just a matter of having the right equipment, and taking the time to expose the shots. And that is where digital helps, you can see at an instant that the framing is correct or the focus, or the exposure, and adjust if necessary.

I too look at the street pictures you and others are producing and say the same thing, "I could never do that".

Here are three photos of a sunrise that I took within a span of a few minutes....and it is the last of this subject that I will bore you with...

Any reactions and preferences are most welcome.

The first is with Provia 100F.  Too long of an exposure for the velvia 50.
