Film to the rescue!

The weather in the Houston area finally cooperated enough for me to try
my hand at shooting the current planetary alignment.  I shot both with my
OM2n & my (Oly) C4040 digital.  The digital pix didn't turn out as well
as I hoped; they're quite noisy (due in part to the camera getting hot, I
think.  Hint: turn off the LCD monitor.)  The film pix turned out much
better, though many were overexposed with 800 film and the skies I was
dealing with.

Here's my best shot so far:

Nice shot. Did they bracket like heck or did you just "know" the exposure?

Also, how did you manage to hang the labels on the sky? Angels helping? :-)
