Aha, I see. Challenging conditions and all the better to see that it worked out so well. I guess this is a good reason to ask the finance department for permission to buy a wider lens ;-).

Needing it exactly once in a decade seems sufficient cause!

Indeed, anyone can understand that.

Not the badest of weather, but still pretty dark.
