Full Resolution APL photographer Ed Whitman. Ed was a commercial photographer for 20 years before joing APL.
"Yeah, I had a studio in Silver Spring. Advertising, corporate, portraits, everything. Bosch used to send me a whole case of their power drills for the next season, and it was my job to go shoot them. But yeah, I get to shoot some great stuff here. I was gone for a lot of the summer, actually. I was working at Cape, shooting the integration and launch of Parker Solar Probe. Really cool experience. APL put together a book with a lot of the shots. Let me see if I can find one for you."
Helene Winters told me that that one of Ed's shots was the winner in Aviation Week & Space Technology's 2018 photo contest: 5th photo in the gallery, of the APL-built Parker Solar Probe sitting on the launchpad.
