I dropped my film off for processing on Sunday and got the negatives back. I must say, I'm fairly impressed for only having a 300mm lens. The pictures are really small but the detail is good. The one that I scanned is a bit blurry but that may be from a number of factors.
Stacey also tells me that there is supposed to be another full eclipse coming up in April. Guess I'll just have to find a really big telescope for that one and plan on camping out. I'm sure I can arrange that. Actually, looking at NASA's website, it looks like the May eclipse won't be visible to us but there will be one in October that will. http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/LEplot/LEplot2001/LE2004Oct28T.gif. Here is a listing of eclipse events during 2004. Oh-well.. I was looking forward to a good one in April. Not sure where Stacey got that info from, but post and let me know.
