This last year, I’ve really tried to hone in this style of launch photography. This specific shot feels really great to showcase of the NASA Crew4 launch over Indialantic Beach (Melbourne, Florida). The composition has been sitting in my head for quite a while, but had been waiting for everything to line up correctly. Honestly, I was going to pick a different spot this particular morning and decided to put in some more planning work and figure out the correct trajectory path. It paid off for sure.
