This is the shot you can’t get from the press site. This camera was sitting a few football fields from the SLS rocket at Pad 39B for days before launch, baking in the Florida sun, surviving rain, humidity, and whatever else the Cape threw at it. No photographer behind the viewfinder. Just a camera, a sound trigger, and a bet.
The way pad remotes work: you set your camera up days in advance, dial in your composition, lock everything down, and walk away. You don’t touch it again until after the launch. The shutter fires on sound activation
with a @MiopsTrigger smart+ trigger. With SLS, the four RS-25 engines ignite six seconds before the solid rocket boosters, so the camera is already firing before the vehicle even leaves the pad. You get home, pull the card, and find out if you nailed it or if a bird landed on your lens two days ago and left your a present and you got 400 photos of soemthing crappy.
There’s no formula for protecting your gear this close. Some photographers build wooden boxes with doors that pop open. Some use plastic bags and tape. Some do plastic or metal barn door rigs on hinges. I tend to leave mine open just in plastic rain covers because boxes limit my composition and setup time, but that means your cameras are more exposed to the elements and whatever energy and debris comes off the pad. You’re basically gambling a camera body every time you set one.
That’s what I love about this genre. There’s no playbook. You make it up as you go. Every time is an adventure.

@matthew94616471 @racingblogger Also could be more of a stamina test, and means horses who stay or stay further could close up late on, but a lot of that depends on how the race is run up to that point

@matthew94616471 @racingblogger In hurdle races you’ll likely not see them kick for home off the bend now, they’ll likely kick after the last

🚨 Breaking News at Cheltenham:
This is going to have a huge IMPACT on how some races play out and the final results.
The reason for it: - “due to an area of ground that became particularly wet during the rain in the build-up to the festival.” 🤯
Lee Mottershead@leemottershead
In a not insignificant change to the modern Cheltenham Festival norm, races over hurdles will have a noticeably longer run-in, with the final flight on both courses moved to in between the final two fences, having been located after the final fence in recent years.

Great win for the Toon with 10 men and deserved. 👏🏻👏🏻Not sure who was worse. The Ref or Man Utd. #bothhopeless

@durhamoldtown @DPJHodges We should step right back and do the bare minimum. This is not out fight. The Israelis are the world's worst warmongers.

And where are our two...oh, seriously, what's the point. We're just an international joke now.
