Medicine for Melancholy

"One always looks to the heavens for
solutions to one's problems...but
many times one finds the simplest of
answers to the most sublime questions
in one's very own backyard."
-Edwarde Younge


A lot of my friends seem to be a bit run down this February. I know I was feeling rather run down and run over last week. I took a few minutes to do some stargazing tonight, as it was not freakishly cold for once. I took some photos. I'm pleased with the results.


I even made an effort to resolve Venus as a disk, but the zoom is not quite up to it.


Orion's Belt looking bright and alien.
