I just saw a TV news item about artists who paint pictures of Shuttle
for NASA.  One man said he was looking for a "new perspective" that
no-one had done before.  I thought of a perspective so strange, it
might be impossible to capture in a photograph:

How about a painting of a Shuttle lift-off from a point directly above
the nose, looking down at the pilots, Shuttle, external tank, boosters,
flames, and so on?  Anyone out there paint well enough to do it justice?
