As I rise above the clouds I look down, hear the sound

We spent the last September weekend at Balls 29, a big experimental rocket launch event in the Black Rock Desert in Nevada - the same place where Burning Man takes place. A big rocket is launched every few minutes.

 

This group carries a rocket glider to the launch area. A rocket glider takes off vertically, powered by a rocket motor, then glides back down slowly under remote control.

 

I processed a balanced and a photographic HDR photo from a RAW exposure, blended them selectively, carefully adjusted the color balance and curves, and desaturated the image. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.
