This is a photo essay of the field trip with pictures by Mike Diggles, Chuck Yoneda, Cheryl Smith, Bill Milestone, and Tsing Bardin. Photos not otherwise attributed are by Mike Diggles. These photos have "catalog numbers" in the captions for ordering copies. Each of Mike's photos is available as 4"x6" glossy prints ($0.50 each) and as large (~1-MB) print-quality digital images (no charge) via FTP or email-attachment; I can't keep the big puppies online. These files are 1200 x 1600 pixels (nearly 2 megapixels) and are compressed at JPG-11 (low compression, high quality, large size). Contact Mike Diggles at mike@diggles.com or phone 650-329-5404. Chuck's shots are available from him as higher-resolution versions. Contact Chuck Yoneda at yoneda@SLAC.Stanford.EDU for those. I have higher-resolution versions of Tsing's shots I can provide. I didn't make high-res scans of Bill's shots but I will if you want them. If you want all 117 images plus this Web page off-line, I'll burn you a CD-ROM and mail it to you.
