Space Shuttle Atlantis at the Kennedy Space Center.

We can see it from our backyard, but even with the telephoto, this is as close as we have gotten so far.

A storm was moving toward the Space Center Houston complex.

Originally I was hoping to bokeh out the background and leave the stop sign in focus, but it was impossible to do with this lens.

My family and I were heading to Wright Patterson Air Force Base on February 1, 2003 when I turned on the radio and heard the space shuttle Columbia did not show up on time to the landing site and that NASA had lost contact with the shuttle. I knew immediately what had happened.

We continued on the the Air Force Museum and everyone was in a fog about it. I stopped in the gift shop and got the only mission patch they had for this shuttle flight.

I felt the same grief as I did with Challenger. Go to the web link below to read about this great crew and their ship.

After many attempts I was incredibly excited to successfully dock the space shuttle with the International Space Station.

Maneuvering a craft in space is quite different than flying a plane since you have all three axis' to work with.

My score was 95%!

I enhanced the vibrance of the colors and used the "Dreamy" filter in a new iPhone app called PhotoForge.
