Thanks Kits :t: there is very little light pollution out there so when night comes it feels like you can almost reach out and touch the vastness of space and the myriad diamond like stars .... it really is a very big sky ! :)

..... a 'big sky' indeed Chosun.

You're so lucky not to have the light pollution there; being in a town I suffer from it. Wish I was back in the country sometimes.

Thanks lass.
 
Thanks Delia :t: there is something magical about being so closely connected to nature :) and when you can connect so closely with millions and millions of stars which seem like you can reach out and touch them it makes the universe that much more tangible ....

I spent many a cold clear winter's nightime hour watching meteors, comets, space stations, planets and the moon .... I probably should have spent some time learning astrophotography --- bit you know ---- freezing bl**dy cold, and sleep ! Lol ! |:p|
