NASA LADEE Launch Wallops Island VA 9-6-13

I was in Ocean City MD for the launch of the NASA's LADEE (Lunar Atmosphere and Dust Envirmonent Explorer).  I set up at the inlet which is about 20-30 miles north as the crow flies.  I was only able to get one long exposure of the launch.  Since this was a last minute trip I was not able to scout out a good location.  I had to rely on my gut feeling for the best location.  I have never seen a launch in person.  There is one less item on my super long bucket list.
