On New Years Eve it seems kind of appropriate to have a picture for today’s post that has a count down. It isn’t directly related to New Years but it does fit the trip theme for the day. This picture was taken at Kennedy Space Center in Florida on the tour that is available beyond the main area. The tour takes you to a few places including a spot where you can see where the space shuttles were launched from and also a large building dedicated to the Apollo series of space missions – very cool place.
This photo is taken in the Apollo building during a mock up show of what the control room looked like during the launch of those missions. I set up my camera to not flash and to work well in low light – I also had it on a monopod so that any shake of my hand would be less noticeable. Came out with a very cool shot at 1 second to launch – very cool tour – highly recommended.
