Although I was an observer at this event, it didn't stop me from taking some photos. I brought a film camera to the shoot, and was shooting slides, which finally arrived yesterday. I had a few keepers, and thought I'd share them with you.
For the film shooters out there, I was using a Canon F-1 (old style) with a few different lenses: FD 85mm f/1.2 SSC Aspherical, Tamron 24mm f/2.5, Vivitar 35mm f/1.9. The film was Kodak Elite Chrome 100. I was shooting using ambient light only.
The slides were scanned on an Epson 4990 at a claimed 3200 ppi. A fair amount of PP was done -- hey, it's film. When I get my DSLR back from warranty service, I will make copies of them with my duplicator rig, and update these images accordingly. They should be quite a bit sharper.
I had a good time, folks. Next time I'll probably bring a flash, though
