don't think i'll have to chance to ever see a first gen shuttle launch with a good lens but your shots are so insanely good


Equipment: Canon PowerShot A650IS (semi retired) and Canon Powershot G10 (primary) and Rebel XT 350D w/18-55mm kit lens and Quanterey 18-200mm-- www.youtube.com/alexan​der1485 (external link) (has links to some of my pictures on the main page)

I hear June will be it's last mission. Soon to be retired, best to keep those photos.

Love space and all space topics, great pics.

Great stuff.
One thing I wanted so much to see was a shuttle launch. Not going to happen now :(

Thanks guys.

So it turns out the launch has slipped to no earlier than May 8, which likely means I can visit the pad again for the second RSS retract.
