That was either taken by Ted Chernok or the guy from Rocketry Live. I have stopped taking pictures of my own rockets because then I miss the flight.
I have Ted's permission!! Here is Ted's shot of my Rocketry Warehouse X-Celerator at Red Glare 17, Higgs Farm, MDRA, April 2015. Ted says he will second, but he is very busy with making harnesses right now.
Seconded: Ted Chernok (One Bad Hawk)

First, Second and Third rules of good photography:
1. Always make sure the sun is behind you when taking a picture.
2. Never have the sun in the picture itself unless it is the primary subject.
3. Never ever Ever EVER violate rules 1 & 2.
I'll toss a couple in for this year... (I'll also throw in a blanket approval for anyone who has any of my photos to submit them to this calendar)
Here is my Minnie Magg on a Pro 38 I223 Skidmark in North Branch, MN. Would someone be willing to second this? I will edit post with your "seconded".
Oh, and the Stealth is the 29mm version, I think. I'll ask March (DJ Dead Parrot) next time I see him (or maybe he'll see this thread and reply)
I would like to submit the following photo. Would someone please second the photo?
I would like to submit these photos
The first and last are Bear Creek Lake in Lakewood, CO
The second is in the desert near Boise, ID
The third is at Hudson Ranch near Pueblo, CO

Oh are you kiddin me Dave,, put it in,, I'd be honored if it were picked,, I don't remember how great of a shot it came out as..
That white lens is really no fair Dave,, lol...
I will second these. They really need to have the stories told that go behind them. #4 The first time you went to CRASH just having moved from Hawaii and it was like minus 15. You thought no one would be there but some crazy dudes showed up and you joined the club. #2 Rouge desert launching. #3 Fun with a scratch built Canadian rocket at NARAM.
There are benefits to launching late in the day... dunno which I like more.
Man, Ted, that is still one gorgeous rocket. I'll second these, but I like the one that is totally in the air best!
