The weather inhibited my photography of space shuttle Endeavour's liftoff on July 15, with thick cloud cover and haze muddying the view from just north of Melbourne. While I drove away to get a better angle on the launch for still photos, I left my video camera on my employer's property. It recorded footage for a period before and after the launch at Kennedy Space Center, about 30 miles to the north, and I increased the speed during the editing process in Apple's Final Cut Express.
Like I said the day after the launch, the sight was a "lame" one. And the video is equally deficient of excitement, but trust me, it would be worse if it were at normal speed.
Up next: Endeavour is scheduled to land Friday at Kennedy Space Center, and I plan to watch from across the Indian River Lagoon in Titusville. It will be the first landing for which I'll have a telephoto lens, so I'll shoot for some still images.
