PHOTOGRAPHER KYLE MORGAN’S PHOTO OF A “JELLYFISH CLOUD” FROM A SPACEX ROCKET LAUNCH

Kyle Morgan is new to the photography world. He’s only been at it for a little over a year. But, his dad, well known nature photographer Wayne Morgan, has been at it for a while. After Wayne gave Kyle an old camera of his he has really made a name for himself with one of his photos on the cover of St. Marys Magazine and this Spring, another in People Magazine.

This “Jellyfi sh Cloud” photo was taken around 5:30 a.m. o the shore of Jekyll Island in May, 2022. The photo is of a SpaceX launch of a rocket carrying 53 internet satellites into space. According to Kyle, the rocket was traveling upwards of 20,000 kilometers per hour at the stage when he took this photo.

“I do a lot of astrophotography. I’m always shooting the Milky Way. My wife actually sent me the information about the launch and at the last minute I took o to my favorite spot on Jekyll Island to capture it,” Kyle explained. Talk about being in the right place at the right time.

He posted the photo on Facebook which got a lot of attention online. Soon afterwards, People Magazine contacted him about using it.

He wasn’t sure how the photo would turn out at fi rst – he had only photographed a couple of rocket launches before this one. “The weather turned out great and the trajectory of the rocket was perfect to my location,” he was quoted as saying in People.

In October, Wayne and Kyle traveled to South Dakota for Kyle to “shoot some night time photography in the big open skies” Wayne said. Wayne intended to photograph more wildlife — something he’s known for already.

Looks like the Morgans have another photographer in the family.
