STS-123 Endeavour, launched 2:28am March 11, 2008
From the NASA causeway, using a 24mm lens at f20 with a 0.9 ND filter (-3 stops). This 39 second time-lapse exposure was started at T-10 seconds in the countdown, and terminated early at T+29 seconds when the shuttle disappeared into a low cloud layer. The usual goal at a night-launch is to get a long glowing trail of the whole 8 minutes of powered flight. The clouds prevented that, but instead we get an interesting fire tornado or lightning bolt effect. I used the long-exposure noise reduction mode of the 1Ds3, but it's not clear that it makes much difference for only 39 seconds. If I could have done this over, I'd have shot at f22 with the 0.9 ND filter, to further reduce the exposure. Daily DeviationGiven 2009-08-11Cloudy Night Launch by *luvbight and we have a liftoff. Watch the STS-123 Endeavour and learn how the artist captured this stunning awesomeness too! |

 reports, 1d 12h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |
