Very cool shots, Keith and Tom. It is quite a site to see. What is not cool are the number of "people" going from 70 to 10 in a heartbeat, during rush hour traffic, and cutting across 4 lanes of traffic to stop on the Lake Worth bridge to see it. I thought I was going to die today - seriously.

Fantastic! It doesn't get much better than that with downtown for a backdrop!

Thanks all. . .

Roy. That was the shot I was going after, getting Cowtown in the background.

Tom I was at the Baptist church parking lot across the street from the new "spot".

Keith, yeah I saw you over there.

Here's a little different angle, and I didn't over sharpen this one.

You guys suck! lol I got there TOOOOOO late!

Ok so you dont suck...you both rock! Great pictures! I am hoping to be there tomorrow for the take off and MAYBE I can get something that will resemble the shuttle taking off.

Thanks for letting me see what I missed out on.

It looks like there is somebody at the controls on the shuttle ? I wonder, do they have somebody in the cockpit of the shuttle during transport ? Sorry if I'm naive, do they need to ? Wish I could have seen it in person, great photo's guys.
