Space Shuttle Atlantis

The last photo of Atlantis, before leaving my stationary camera. About a minute and a half later, we hear the jet engines and 15 seconds after that, we feel the rumble. This experience was beyond words. Photo's show the event but no photo can express the true emotion I felt while watching the shuttle go out of sight. If a picture paints a thousand words, well I have several billion stashed away in my memory. Before leaving for Florida, I promised myself that I would not plant my eyes in the eyepiece of a camera. I'm glad I kept that promise, as I watched through my 10 - 50 binoculars until it went out of sight into the clouds. God speed NASA.
