So... We finally got a clear sky here in Minneapolis.
It was 7 degrees F outside. Brr. The sun set at 4:56 and I finally spotted the darned comet at 5:12! Cooooollllldddddd outside. Did I mention that?? I had the DS on a tripod, and the Vivitar Series1 70-205 zoomed full- out to 205mm. This is full-frame, converted from RAW and fiddled with six ways from Sunday to try and up the contrast where the comet is/was to make it more visible. I wish we'd had clear skies a few nights earlier. By the time I left the 12th floor roof my fingers were in pain. 2.5 meg JPEG linked below - large file, sorry. And it's not very good but it's the best I was capable of while using a purloined key to go out on the roof during work! http://charles.robinsontwins.org/images/imgp5058b.jpg Did anyone else manage to finally see this elusive thing? -Charles -- Charles Robinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
