Just remembered, I completely forgot to upload the pic on BRFsudhan wrote:Saw my first launch..from Chennai. Was having DD live telecast on one hand and my cam on the other.
Nothing prepared me for what was to come..
Given the distance from Sriharikota, I was thinking it would be a small spot of flame moving leisurely across the sky.. and boy was I wrong!
Was alternating between glancing at the telecast and scanning the northern skies for a flame / smoke.. then I saw it. And for the first time in my life, said "holy sh!t" involuntarily.. The flame, a searing large one and the GSLV's pace was beyond blistering.. the rocket broke the haze cover a few seconds post lift off, and I barely managed 6 or 8 snaps before I lost track of the trail.
Such a majestic sight, and unfortunately most people did not care..
Will post some pics soon..
Sorry, if I sounded like a teen fanboy..

Thank YouMort Walker wrote:Kakarat,
Great pics and many thanks!
You might want to use some post-processing filters to see the launch vehicle better. Seems to be lots of water vapor, perhaps an ND and or polarizing filters on your lenses may help.
Did some post processing using GIMPMore
