Not the greatest NASA shot quality wise but - taking into account height and speed of the subject matter - a spectacular image none the less.

I've never seen such a clear shot of a lift off. Looks like it needs to be rotated 90 degrees clockwise to be be accurate, but a great shot either way.

I havn't lost my mind, it's backed up on disk somewhere.....
thanks one and all - Delzvir - the shot is at the angle it was from the NASA archive so I can only assume this is taken at top of its arc flight path shortly before booster ejection.
cheers - Phil

With any understanding of physics, an awesome display of humans ability to boldly go...
Great impact! I can feel the vibes. Thanks Phil.

you didnt see how bad the original was. its had as much sharpening and noise reduction as it will take without it starting to look false.

Wow, that is impressive. Makes you wonder how much thrust those solid rocket boosters pump out during lift off. Great photo.

Never knowing
Shocking but we're nothing
We're just moments
We're Clever but we're clueless
We're just human
Amusing but confusing
Were trying but where is this all leading
Never Know
-Jack Johnson
a combined thrust of 1,174,713 kg is quoted by nasa - so quite a bit really.
