Photography

well maybe not fun, more like sad actually.

Fewer than 20% of the people currently alive on the planet have seen the Milky Way.

I grew up on a farm in what was rural north east Ohio so I just took what I saw every night, when it wasn't cloudy or a full moon, for granted. Then I spent 25 years living urban after marrying a woman whose nursing specialty was not available in rural hospitals. She retired, we moved back to rural America, in fact just a bit west of where that picture was taken, in north central Washington.

Now I get to see the glories of the cosmos whenever I want but I never take it for granted anymore.
