It’s in the Stars

On my iPod I installed an app called APOD: astronomy picture of the day. Go to apod.nasa.gov to sign up for this free service. Every day, almost anyway, I receive a new photo from space. Many of these photos are outrageously fabulous. Here are links to just three of them.

Two of the photos I have chosen appeal to me as much from a photographer’s point of view as an astronomer’s point of view. The third photo is not new but it’s just such a nice image of the moon.
