I just watched the cars go by in the street about 300 feet away. Plus, I was checking my Palm Pilot timer every few minutes. I just made sure that my legs did not move, and I returned my head to about the same position each time. It was not too bad!

Very nice, Jon. Everything works in this - setting, exposure, development - and on xray film too! A really nice image.
