It came down from the black of night in a blaze of light, leaving a trail that burned itself into the eyes of any that happened to witness it. It blazed down and the impact shattered the very reality and obliterated everything near.

It came down out of the darkness of the sky and changed everything. It destroyed hopes and dreams. It caused chaos and panic. It ushered in the dawning of another, darker, god-forsaken age.

It was pain and suffering and torment, and it was not alone.

Nice capture. I may have cropped of the grass and let the water come to the bottom of the photo. But as-is, it a very nice photograph. Great job controlling the lighting at night.

I was also lucky enough to have been able to take photo's of endeavor's night time launch. I was standing outside at a park in Melbourne. My photo's were not nearly as impressive as this one is when you consider that it was well after dark at launch time. I am scoring this photo very high. Excellent photo. I am sure that you won't mind a 10 :)
