"... here am I sitting in my tin can, far above the Moon; Planet Earth is blue, and Saturn's rings are now in view ..." (with apologies to David Bowie).
I thought I'd show you an astronomical photo, or should that be astronomy ? Actually I had a little more phun today - I know, it's supposed to be reserved for phridays, but I've missed so many I'm making up for lost time.
Yesterday I told you about the great day I had enjoying the beauty of the creation. Well to top it off, the Creator also painted this masterpiece when I was on my way home last evening. Sasha didn't mind that I stopped once more to capture it, and since today is Sunset Sunday the timing couldn't have been better.

@Barefoot from Heaven - Dag, I have a super duper telescope that I connect to my lens and it lets me take pictures of the planets and stars !
No ? You don't believe me ? Well, I do have a telescope, but I made this photo a little closer to home - in the kitchen in fact. I played around with a vase, put some marbles in it, put a flashlight on top pointing down, turned off all other lights, and caught this pattern on the kitchen counter. Ok - my secret is out now ;-)
Fijne dinsdag Dag !
@becky - ok Becky, I 'fessed up to Barefoot From Heaven - previous comment (not nearly as exciting as you might have imagined ;-)
