I'm not impressed. Why did you have to photshop that? Obviously you werent at the launch site a 4am in the morning, so you got the image off a website..and to top it all off, you photoshopped the image to make some kind of montage.IN my estimation, this is the prime example of anti-digtal photgraphy. I am not oppsed to digital photography per-se. That is, in the hands of an experienced photagrapher who at least knows how to use a Pentax K1000. What i am seeing is very poor photogaraphy, without the slighest inclination towards a tradtional realistic image, but spalttered all over the screen as digital"art". Go get a penatx K1000. Spend 6 months takin images , and then come back and give us some digital photos without the phootshop crutch.

First off ...Welcome to AA Shutterbug, second i'm a 30 yr working pro-& photojounalist w/ a Ft. Laud paper. and Nikon F5 - Joe M 07:15:56 07/08/06 (0)
and digi user. That Space launch photo by me in Oct 2000. For STS-92 Americas 100th flight..
This was a 7pm evening shot i took at the NASA Press site 3 miles away. on Fuji 400 asa film.
I hastily put this PS image together the morning i learned there would be a 4th July Launch. It's only intended meaning - a welcome celebration for the fourth.
BTW I often reccomend the Pentax K to many newbies- as a good training wheels start into photography.

Check the archives here at Shutterbug my pics are all over.
