This was taken during the Space X Falcon 9 Rocket Launch on December 22, 2017. The sun had just set, and lit up the really beautiful trail that the rocket left in the sky. This was the first rocket launch I'd ever seen. A friend invited me to watch and it just so happened to be perfectly timed after work so I was able to set up my camera to try to capture it. I didn't expect it to be so pretty and bright.

I also made a video of the launch that you can see here: https://youtu.be/MxPPMUjqcRc
