That's pretty cool looking. I like the lens flare that you captured. It looks like the CVS camera (that's what you used, right?) has a pretty decent sensor in it because my cheapie camera oversaturates when looking at a bright light. Any place where the light is too bright it shows up as black on my images. The sun looks like a black circle in the sky because of this cheap sensor.

Why would anyone get tired? You've done a great job of posting a variety of different types of images. Keep it up I say!

Keep posting the photos and videos Dan.
I really like seeing your work. How did you mount your camera on your rocket. Do you cut a hole in a bottle for the lens to see out of or just put the camera in a clear bottle?

The blue circle is the lens flare I was talking about. It's cool. They put those in movies and stuff to make them look cool!
