I've seen the shuttles fly twice before: once as a ball of plasma as it 
re-entered over northern California on her way to a landing at the Cape, 
another in ascent from Orlando as the orbiter lifted off. Both were amazing.

Now the last flight of ENDEAVOR as she is ferried to LA to rest in the 
California Science Museum. Thousands of people turned out to see the shuttle 
fly over the capitol. 

They weren't disappointed.

Most of these are Canon 1Ds MkII with 70-200mm f2.8L and a 2x teleconverter. 
A few are the Sony NEX-7 with Leica 100mm APO.

Comments etc welcome.
