Brent: No apology is needed but I am looking for a Skyline now to put on my Office/Bedroom wall. If you get it organized let me know and I’ll post yours to the facebook page. Unless you want the whole album there. Steve

Sorry for the other photos in that album. I am not a regular on photobucket, and I just have not organized them.
This shot was taken with an 80 mm Lumicon Superfinder and a 2.4" Dakin Barlow. The equivalent is 720 mm at f9. Shutter speed was 1/4000 sec at ISO 200. I used a glass filter aluminized on both sides. I tripped the shutter manually. I am sure that I can improve on the image quality by using a remote shutter trip and timing the photo to eliminate vibration. I used Photoshop to adjust dynamic range and added a bit of sharpening. I'm continuing to improve, so maybe in the next few days I'll be ready.

I guess we're all getting ready for the 20th. I got my system working and got these results:
