I flew with the Golden Knights this evening while they jumped. It was dark, had to use a 3200 ISO and it was cold.

I'll have to look for the slide. I don't think I've duped it to digital.

Don't tell me you actually went skydiving?

I went with some friends from our ski club & took a Rolli 35 'cause it would fit in my sleeve pocket. At about shot #45 I found that the crappy back design allowed the pressure plate to catch & bump the film off the sprockets. So I had to go back & do it again. :D Total of 3 jumps = a few "interesting" pics.
