Atlantis' unexpected approach over my area
I only found out that it was coming this way a few minutes before I grabbed this picture. It was an awe-inspiring sight...about the magnitude of Venus but absolutely quiet. I was lucky to capture this image, handheld at three seconds. RIP Space Shuttle Program.

3. that's a cool shot
and you have some of the steadiest hands i have ever seen...most images from tripods (without a remote trigger) are worse than that with a three second shutter...

4. Thank you!
I hope that it conveys some of the sense of awe and mystery that I experienced.
