It's a bit of a mindset shift to switch back to photographing barrels outdoors. Fortunately, shooting with strobes has taught me to be more deliberate about when I photograph, so I no longer spray-and-pray when photographing. It's saved a TON of time uploading and saved tons of space on my hard drive.

Another beautiful launch from Vandenburg. It was great because my wife was with me and saw it. She missed the last one. She also had her cell phone "tuned" to the live stream so there was no guessing about when.
Cheers.
A more substantial probe launch and tracking platform...
Rover on tracks and 2 persons wide (just), with a tracking array, and space for different probes that can be launched with a rocket. And a rocket trailer that doubles as launch platform.
Not perfect yet, but I was in a bit of a hurry to get this done in celebration of the real Black Hole picture presented today (April 4 2019).
The model depicts a spaceship taking off.
This MOC was built for Space Jam 2021 12x12 Vignette category.
Soli Deo Gloria!
La mission se termine et ça a été un vrai plaisir de la partager, à travers mes photos de la Terre ou de notre quotidien à bord, avec celles et ceux qui étaient intéressés ou qui voulaient découvrir le monde des missions spatiales. J’aurais adoré, enfant, pouvoir suivre ce genre d’aventure de près, comme le prouve la photo ci-jointe : je salue de la main ma famille qui vient de m’accompagner sur le pas de tir, bien harnaché dans ma fusée alors que je m’apprête visiblement à décoller vers des galaxies lointaines (mon frère, pas plus impressionné que ça, a décidé de se poser tranquille dans le premier étage du lanceur).
Hey it’s almost time to go home: I have enjoyed very much capturing imagery of Earth, and of our journey up here, and I have been happy to share the mission with whoever was interested. I remember being fascinated by space as a kid: proof attached as I’m waving goodbye to my family from the launchpad, already strapped on the rocket and ready for launch (my brother, not impressed, decided to ride inside the first stage 😂).

A 1000 HP Widebody M3 doing a launch at a Shift-S3ctor Airstrip Attack a few months back. Loved how this thing looked from the back! Check out my coverage over at Revvolution.com @ bit.ly/18ozBjN

Today The Big Lemon launched its first solar powered electric bus. The bus which was once a standard diesel Optare Solo has been converted to run fully electric and is powered by solar panels located on the roof of the depot. The bus has been fully refurbished inside and is fitted with wifi. This is the first solar bus to arrive with the second shortly. The launch day consisted of a speech from all partners involved in the project followed by unveiling of a plaque then a tour of the city on the bus followed by a depot tour.
Beadnell bay harbour launch service.
1970s Fordsum tractor helps get your craft from the car park into the sea.
Beadnell is the only west facing bay on the north east coast of England and is very busy with every type of water sport. At low tide all 7 miles of the bay and beach and dunes can be walked south to dunstanburgh castle.
For those of you who have followed my photostream, you have seen "Stretch" before. He was a wild migratory "tundra" Peregrine Falcon that I studied and documented for 3 years. I was on the beach 80' below when I captured this shot of him launching from the cliff top. Stretch passed away February 2007. This image is posted as shot, except for using Noiseware to selectively eliminate Noise from the sky. This was shot with my 1st digital camera, a Nikon D70 with a Nikkor AF 80-400mm f5.6 lens. "Stretch" is just how you see him, in his prime as a "tiercel" and magnificent Peregrine Falcon. Explored 257 April 18

A fawn launches for a quick run. They love to run at this age, but tire quickly. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
We had a terrific and very fun launch evening for Justin Davies, and his wonderful new children's novel, Haarville. We had a lot of very happy young readers in attendance who enjoyed the evening, plus a special cake too (what event is not improved by adding cake???). Justin also told the audience about some of his inspirations, including how some of the small coastal towns around Fife influenced his descriptions of his imaginary town, Haarville.

Launches two ends of a cable in opposite directions and pulls the user along it using a motorized pulley; ideal for ziplining across vast horizontal gaps. Version 2.0 which I think matches its appearance in Arkham City much better.
