Captured with a DSLR and a Zeiss 21mm Distagon lens. Handheld (there was no room to set up a tripod).
In 2009, I was fortunate to join a “top to bottom” tour of former Air Force Titan ICBM site 571-7, now preserved as a museum. Titan II missiles carried a nine megaton(!) “physics package” in the “reentry vehicle” (which they emphatically assured me had been removed from this missile, but I still wouldn’t advise upsetting them too much).
