In honor of Space Shuttle Atlantis returning to earth this morning, I’m posting a few images from its launch two weeks ago.  As a kid, I was fortunate to view a few space shuttle launches from across the inter-coastal waterway.  However, to be able to watch the launch of STS-135 from Kennedy Space Center was unlike anything I have ever experienced.  The ground shook and I watched in amazement as the giant shuttle left the launch pad and disappeared into the clouds in a matter of seconds.

The ARC of Alachua County recently had its annual Charity Bob Rose Golf Scramble to benefit developmentally disabled individuals and their families in the community.  I was asked to cover the event, and I had fun driving around on a golf cart taking candid shots of the golfers.

(*side note* if you follow me on twitter you saw why my GPS is one of the best gifts my husband has ever given me – yes, I got lost on the golf course.)
