Kennedy Space Center today!!!

Going over for the day. Taking the GF, it'll be her first time there and seeing a lunch up close.

Launch is scheduled for 7:55pm. Theres a 70% favor for launch, looks like it'll just be cloudy so I hope once the sun comes up and heats us up it'll clear some of the cloud cover. And theres a 20%, chance of precip this morning/afternoon, and 10% tonight, so that looks decent.

This'll be a fun experiment shooting the shuttle at night. But I'm sure it'll be easy cause damn thing is like the sun! I'll have it at f/8 probably and go from there...Wish I had another body so I can have the wide angle ready to go to get a long exp of the whole arch it makes!

Here are the pics, a few for now that I did real quick.

If I weren't working, you could grab my D50. What time do you leave?
