A visitor from United States posted Mon August 15, 2011: I think one of the hardest things about making this photo was trying to figure if the rocket would stay in the frame til the shutter closed. But as usual, Ben pulls it off! Simply awesome!
A visitor from Germany posted Sun July 10, 2011: Simply perfect.

A visitor from - posted Sun February 27, 2011: 25 minutes, thanks
A visitor from United States posted Fri February 11, 2011: Judging from the length of the star trails, I'd guess Ben had his shutter open for about 10 minutes before the launch, maybe a little longer; this is a shot that can only be taken by a guy who knows precisely what he's doing! (and believe me......Ben knows what he's doing! )
