   This might make a good Duracell commercial…
   Looking forward to the flights.

   Looks like a G-Wiz commercial!!! I have an HCX (as one of my seven altimeters). Love it though!

   Right you are! Gorgeous color. Did you see an explanation for why it took 2 years? Lots of failed attempts? Artistic procrastination? Perfectionism? Waiting for perfect light indoors? =) Or some cool compositing effort?

   I just went and took a picture…. =)

   

   I also like the artistic angle… I tried something similar with the Apollo RL-10 engine in the office:

   [http://www.flickr.com/photos/jurvetson] I think text above reflects the gallery owner’s marketing twist…rephrase as "the entire series involved 4 trips to Kennedy over 2 years." The series included shuttle launch photos etc that may have required extra travel…or maybe he just likes going there a lot 😉 Here’s a page on the gallery site showing more of the series…the nozzle photo is IMO far and away best of show… http://www.ma2gallery.com/current.html
