Captured this photo of the recent LADEE launch from my window sill in the Bronx. Freedom tower and Empire state building on the right. It's my first picture to get shared and posted by some popular organizations and websites! (Amazing Photos Of LADEE's Rocket Launch Into Space From NYC: Gothamist) Glad to be shooting with Pentax. I know its not the most in focus picture, but I had limited time to prep and the camera was literally balancing outside of my 9th story window.

Wow, nice capture. Whenever I have the moment like that, I almost do quicker 200% than normal in order to capture it. Sometimes I don't remember where is my lens )
