Guest 13-Sep-2006 17:24
Great gallery ! Your copyright comment was interesting as it was specifically to the news media. You must have seen an image of yours on the front page without permission. From this gallery I can understand why...
Guest 13-Sep-2006 10:37
Excellent! Very enjoyable! Bravo!
Marcos Rodriguez 13-Sep-2006 02:59
Fantastic gallery! I followed the launch live on FoxNews and it was amazing, had not been so moved by such an event for a long time; it was great and you captured it beautifully.
mic_hong12-Sep-2006 20:15
Great illustration of a launch...
Zane Paxton12-Sep-2006 08:26
Fabulous images!

I get choked up just looking at these I used to get uo at 4:00 in the morning to watch the Mercury lift-offs when I was a kid and the whole idea of it all still moves me.
Rob Tobler12-Sep-2006 04:32
Beautiful shots. You are very lucky to have this type of access. Guess its the benefits of the job. voted

Great gallery! Thanks for posting. (and to think anyone questions going to Mars!) :-D. Voted
Guest 11-Sep-2006 12:44
Rod, sensational gallery. When I lived in the USA for three years up to 2000, I got close up on a tour with a member of the space program and saw a night launch from the public viewing area, but got nothing comparable to any of your shots here. Great technical and artistic effort. Thanks for sharing.

I have always been intrigued by the Shuttle and these are some of the best photos that I have seen.

WoW!
I am extreamly impressed with your ability to get in there from before the Suttle was even raised up on the boster rocket, etc. These are just amazing!

Interesting and well done.
Nancy in Miami 04-Aug-2006 16:38
Such un-earthly beauty. The foggy shots are ethereal. And the mirror image's perfect.
Mom 04-Aug-2006 14:05
Your pictures are outstanding but the fog is my favorite, probably a chance in a life to catch that one. So glad I have a son working at Cape to share these pictures with me.
susan 04-Aug-2006 13:58

Awesome photos Rod. I really like the one showing the tracks of the MLP.
Fred M. 03-Aug-2006 02:01
Rod,
Great photo of Atlantis! You're lucky to have such access. The shot of the Shuttle and Transport in the fog it particularly outstnading.
Richard Calmes02-Aug-2006 15:30
The beginning of another great series!
