Too much light pollution in my part of Michigan to shoot the Milky Way. If I were to attempt it, I’d use the 50/1.2 and lie on the ground. I could never do it standing up. Not only would I fail to be steady, I’d probably lose my balance and topple over. And it’s Stenquist, no i ;-) Paul

Thanks, Bob. I was in the wingman spot, as he is ahead of us and to the left. It is much harder to get a good shot from the lead plane, as it had to be "over-the-shoulder," and there are obstructions in the canopy in that direction. Dan Matyola http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/danieljmatyola
