Lights are off now, will be back on 12/1/2010!

4/5/2010: My photos from STS-131 along with my tips and camera settings are now uploaded on my article "How to take pictures of a NASA Space Shuttle Launch"

I completed my new tutorial called How to view and photograph a NASA Space Shuttle Launch that I created that shows you how to photograph a NASA Space Shuttle launch in the day time, as well as how to photograph the Space Shuttle launch at night. There's lots of proven high resolution photos I have shot to help inspire you, with full exposure details. I also included tips and strategies for the best locations to view a Space Shuttle Launch, and using tour busses as an alternate way of getting into Kennedy Space Center.
