ULA Atlas 5 AEHF 5 launch, setup #2
Long exposure (nearly 5 min) launch of ULA Atlas 5 AEHF 5 at 6:13AM EDT. With the launch being delayed, it caused my long exposure to be blown out to the east. Having not shot from this location before, I had the launch a bit tight on my right side composition. Lessons learned, limit my long exposures to no more than 180 seconds, even at night. Canon 5DM3 with Sigma ART 14mm 295s f/16 ISO 100. Post-processing in LR CCC, PS CC, and Topaz Adjust AI.
