Hello everyone! Here are answers to some FAQ's: I am a 20-year-old accredited photojournalist for a local news agency called Space Coast Times. These press credentials give myself and other journalists access to set up sound-activated cameras at launch pads and watch some launches on the roof of the incredible Vehicle Assembly Building. The elevated location made for a spectacular view of what I am labeling as my favorite rocket launch I have seen so far.
When Falcon 9 launches around an hour before sunrise on the East Coast or sunset on the West Coast, a breathtaking phenomenon occurs. The exhaust plume of the first and second stages reaches high enough in the atmosphoere to become illuminated by the sun that is still beyond the horizon of the viewer.
This two-frame composite image (to avoid over-exposure) was taken using a Nikon D7100 and Sigma 10-20mm f/3.5 lens.
If you are interested in seeing more photos of this launch, photos taken from my camera placed at the launch pad, and other interesting parts of Florida's Space Coast, the best place to do this is on my Instagram @marcuscote_photo.
Finally, I must also shamelessly plug my online print store where you can easily create and purchase wall art, coffee mugs, mouse pads, and more! International shipping is available and prints start at just 14.99!

If you ignore the facts, the picture looks like a beautiful missile hitting a gorgeous target
