That's one small step for (a) man, one giant leap...

    Very nice...that's a dark scene - must have had to crank the ISO there.

    3200's not too bad. ; I figured 6400. ; But you did have a pretty slow shutter speed...just enough to cancel out the ride movement. I've shot 3200 and 6400 in that ride - both work, but sometimes 6400 helps keep the shutter speed up just enough in some scenes to avoid bits of blur.

    Well where's the "where were you when SE stopped" thread? ; :D

    Ugh...haven't yet had that pleasure. ; Funny, before I was into photography, I was annoyed when the rides stopped. ; Ever since, I've WISHED the rides would stop for me! ; And they won't anymore. ; I can't tell you how many times I used to stop in HM...and yet ever since I was armed with an ISo6400 capable camera and an F1.4 lens, I'd give my firstborn to stop that ride at a few key spots.

    Nicely done, Roger. ; When I tried to shoot it, the exposure was good for the whole room, but the TV was washed out and my shutter speed was too slow. ; Maybe I'll get it next time.

    I can remember watching the TV show live in 1969. ; Walter Cronkite kept talking and we almost didn't hear Neil's famous words.

    strange how life goes, i can't remember some days what i had for breakfast, but i can still to this day remember leaving the beach, on my schwinn, to bike to a nearby friend's house, to join his parents and sister in the living room to watch this on a black and white tv.

    Nice work Roger! ; I was stuck between scenes so I have nothing to add to the "where were you" thread.
