One of the more photogenic launches - CSG-2 on Falcon 9. Left is staging with booster turning for boostback. Right is at the moment of landing in Florida.

The beauty here is visible to the naked eye near Cape Canaveral. Staging is clear with a good pair of binoculars.

For drone ship booster landings they now switch to southerly trajectories for polar orbits because of rough winter weather in the Atlantic. However, here it was a return to launch site landing, so in this case I don't know why.
