STS-135 Liftoff
Nicely done.
Interesting that the NASA photo folks chose not to crop the water tower out of the pic after the lightning strike yesterday. It's appreciated, I'd hoped to find a photo with it to post here; it turned out to be the first still NASA published.

Didn't get down to the Cape to see it. Sad. But I've seen many launches, so I can't complain.
