Blast from the recent past-McNaught

Yesterday, I found a roll of 35mm film lying around, and I thought, I wonder if I have the last few shots of McNaught on it? So I got them developed today.

So far, I had managed to stuff up 5 wasted rolls of film to try to capture this magnificent spectacle. I actually gave up.


OMG!!! I got a whole roll of decent shots. I am elated! What, with the success of capturing the Eagle last night, and now this!

Unfortunately, while the glossy photo prints look absolutely magnificent, a bit of image quality has been lost scanning it and putting it here. Still, I hope you mob like it!

I'll chuck it on the A.S.I.G.N. site tomorrow if I can.
