Some improvement in capturing a launch. While not a great day, in terms of photo productivity, I've now made a check list to make sure I don't make the same mistakes again. I failed to unlock my 200-500 mm lens - so all these images from at 200mm. My video camera managed to capture the blowing bushes instead of the rocket - and so the list of mistakes goes on.

Below, the SpaceX Video of launch and recovery (totally awesome)
