Arming the rocket for launch

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. My son holds Kate while our friend arms his yellow rocket. Kate is the talking telemetry system that announces the altitude, speed, acceleration and position of the rocket while in flight.

 

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