Space Shuttle pics

Not by me, but well worth a look! Check out the high res version of the picture on the bottom row, second from the right! ( http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/gallery/images/shuttle/sts-114/hires/iss011e11227.jpg )

The photos were taken from the International Space Station, and I am amazed at what they can see on the ground from there! I thought it would be a lot further away!

Imagine doing that job, then downloading them to the PC and finding you had left it on 1600ISO by accident

Apropos this item I happened to be taking a quick look at the Rob Galbraith web site and this item popped out fo the screen at me - so I thought this would be a good thread to link to it.

So they are using unmodified or barely modified 6Mpix Kodaks then! Interesting.

Amazing.

I found this which I thought was a bit...well sad really.

Do you like the way they've used velcro to stick their lenses to the wall in this shot ?
