We went kayaking to an area about 7 miles across from the launchpad... good exercise while enjoying an amazing Shuttle launch...
Here is a small sampler of the images I took while waiting for the launch, and of course, the launch itself... hope you like them! 8)
(I used my old & trusty Nikon D70 with a 100-300mm lense)

Clear skies to all!
