Me and my wife took a cruise down to Mexico and on one of the days when we went to eat ashore it got dark as we were on the way back to the boat. I forget now how I managed a 30 second exposure without a tripod but I guess I must have used a handy post or something to keep the camera stable.

After NASA decommissioned the space shuttles the Endeavour as flown to the California Science Center in Los Angeles. As part of the trip it did a low flyby over the NASA Ames Research Center and to celebrate they opened their doors for an afternoon of events and the chance to watch the shuttle fly by. We were lucky enough to be living locally at the time, and be on their mailing list having attended a previous event. It’s really something to see a space shuttle mounted to the back of a jumbo jet fly so close overhead.
