2005 ARRL Handbook Cover Photo

Nearly two months ago I was asked to take a photo for the 2005 ARRL Handbook cover! The initial order for this book is going to be 20,000 copies and it's possible a reprint will be needed later in the year. More can be read about the handbook on ARRLWeb.

At the right you can see the original photo I shot; below that is the Handbook cover with the photo integrated. A larger view of the cover is available if you'd like to read the text.

Taken with my Nikon Coolpix 5700 digital camera. The circuit board glows because I shot it on a light table. Strobes light the top of the board.
