"Armstrong & Eagle Under A Blazing Sun"
http://www.ianr81.homestead.com/files/thumba11.jpg
http://www.geocities.com/ianr81/IanR81A11.html This is a mosiac that I have just finished working on that shows a view of the Apollo 11 landing site at Mare Tranquillitatis, using Hasselblad photographs taken by Buzz Aldrin. I wanted to produce this composite after browsing through the pictures on Kipp Teague's excellent 'Apollo Archive' website - I saw the opportunity to have Armstrong, Eagle, the Flag and the Sun all in a single frame, using genuine in-flight Apollo photography. The following pictures were used to produce the mosaic: AS11-44-6598 AS11-40-5886 AS11-40-5887 AS14-66-9305 (The sun - no A11 images show the sun from the lunar surface) If anybody wants to have a larger version for their desktop, here is a link to a 1280 × 1024 sized file: http://www.geocities.com/ianr81/IanR81A11.html This is my own tribute to Neil, Buzz and the mission of Apollo 11 in general. I hope all you fellow Apollo enthusiasts enjoy this one! Regards, Ian Regan. |
