> Drats! The same bank of heavy clouds rolled across Virginia last night. Guess I'll wait it out until the next one. > > > > We had the same cloud problem in Denver. I drove 300 miles (one way) into Utah, only got the last third of the event, along with many frustrating lessons in proper exposure and long lens technique. I used a D100 with sigma 400 lens. Was surprised at inability to get detail in both sides of the eclipse. Would I better of shooting b&w film to get more dynamic range in the exposure? Maybe we'll all get luckier with the weather in November, and hopefully I'll be more proficient in technique. Don Wilson
