NASA Apollo Photos
NASA recently released all the Apollo moon mission photos to the public on flickr here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/projectapolloarchive/albums
Being a space geek, I looked at every one and was completely blown away by these photos which are also available for download in original resolution. Being a photo geek, I picked a few of my favorites and edited them to suit me. Here they are!
These were all shot with film cameras ... digital photography hadn't been invented yet, or at least not commercialized. Some were shot in B&W, a few in color. The negatives were scanned to produce images of about 4,000 x 4000 pixels. Many were shot through space craft window glass. There's a lot of noise in some of them. But those artifacts aside, these are spectacular.
