Re: [OM] Re: Nat Geo reference

Shawn,
Perhaps you missed the initial discussion on National Geographic 
photographers using OM.  I related the story of this shot.  It was made with 
an OM-2 mounted to the vertical tail of the L-1011 on a twilight approach.  
The long exposure could probably only be made with an OM-2, hence the OM 
relevance.
I wish I could remember where I read the story with the details of the shot, 
since the National Geographic issue only shows a picture of the camera 
installation.  I remember clearly that it was shot with an OM-2 and a 24 mm. 
 However, I know that some of my memories are suspect.
Regards,
Gary Edwards
