The film camera lens was destroyed (the photographer was several miles away), but the shot was worth it I think you’ll agree. This 2007 night launch of the 23-story rocket with strapon boosters, at the Air Force station at Cape Canaveral, was for a missile-warning satellite. Something Mahmoud-the-Mad might want to keep in mind. To the extent his widdle head is capable of containing anything more complicated than Holocaust denial and the schedule for his daily meds.

That is awesome, I was wondering how they got it without destroying the camera.
It looks fake because you know anything taking that pic would get destroyed.
He says at the link the camera was blown off its anchored tripod, but not before getting the picture. I’ve seen photos of the fire cones of the shuttle’s boosters, taken by shielded NASA cameras near the pad.
I figured there was optic cable or something to a lens that could be destroyed.
Great pic though.
