Epic Time exposure (Not mine).
This perfect time exposure was taken near Kennedy Space Center and shows an Atlas V rocket booster lifting a communication satellite into geosynchronous orbit on January 30 2013.
Besides the technological wonder in the image, I was so impressed that someone could set up a time exposure and get it right the first and only time. There would be no do-overs for NASA or the photographer on this shot.
I mentioned that I didn't take this image, but trying to take credit for such a glorious work is like laying claim to Paul McCartney's "Yesterday". I doubt anyone would believe me.
