From Earth with an 80 mm lens, the Moon's image would be 0.7 mm (0.03 inch) on the original negative. That's small and implies they were far from the Moon! What you need to know for the brightness is the exposure time and f-stop. Any photo can be made dark. I do not see any of those three unknowns in the document. (Assuming the eclipse photos were taken at about the same time, the relative diameters of the Earth and Moon will give a good clue as to where they were between the Earth and Moon.) | |
